Mexican Pot Roast

I make tacos from this simple and quick pork dish. Prep time is about 10 minutes.

Slow Cooked Pork, Mexican Style

Slice 2 medium onions, cut 2 medium carrots into 1/2" rounds, chop 2 hot peppers (I used poblano, which aren't that spicy), and mince 4 cloves of garlic. Put vegetables in bottom of slow cooker.

Cover a 4-5 lb piece of pork (I used picnic) with a rub made of oregano, cumin, coriander, and black pepper. Place pork on top of veggies.

Pour 1 cup of water down sides of slow cooker. Cook 6-8 hours on low.

Remove pork & shred. Meanwhile, puree vegetables & broth. Replace meat in slow cooker. Add a big handful of chopped cilantro.

Serve in tortillas (thicker homemade ones would be perfect!) with gravy, sour cream, guacamole, and refried beans. Cheese and salsa are also an option.
