Slow Cooked Carnitas Tacos
This is a super easy recipe. Throw the pork and spices in the crockpot and leave for the day. It shreds easily and then you put it into tortillas for dinner!

Bahan-bahan
- 2 pounds boneless country style pork ribs or pork shoulder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano ((preferably Mexican))
- ½ large onion, (cut into 4 pieces)
- 1 large avocado, (halved, pitted and sliced)
- fresh cilantro
- 1 medium red bell pepper, (sliced)
- 8 medium tortillas ((corn or flour))
- 1 cup green chile salsa
Langkah-langkah
-
Toss the pork in the bowl of a slow cooker with salt, pepper, and oregano to coat. Place the onion pieces on top of the pork. Cover the slow cooker and cook the pork on a low setting until the meat is very tender and falling apart, about 6 hours (I've left it up to 10 hours, and it's been perfect either way).
-
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the pork to a cutting board. Discard the onion pieces. Using clean fingers (or two forks), shred the pork; transfer the carnitas to a platter. Place avocado slices, cilantro sprigs, and sliced red bell peppers, if desired, alongside.
-
Wrap corn or flour tortillas in a damp kitchen towel; microwave until warm, about 1 minute. Serve the carnitas with warm tortillas and green salsa.
