CROCK POT PULLED PORK TACOS

Steps:

• Place the first 7 ingredients in a bowl and mix.
• Place the pork shoulder in the Crock Pot (slow cooker) and rub all over with the seasoning mixture.
• Pour the jar of salsa around the pork shoulder.
• Cook on low heat for 8-12 hours.
• Remove the pork to a plate and using 2 forks, shred the into bite size pieces (I like to remove the visible pieces of fat).
• Pour a scoop or two of the juices into the pork and stir to combine (If you want to remove the excess fat from the juice you will use, pour it into a cup and refrigerate it until the fat solidifies and can be easily scooped out. Only the juices will remain).
• Place the pork into the tortillas.
• Serve with desired accompaniments.

CROCK POT PULLED PORK TACOS AND THEN SOME

Steps:

• Making the pork: COMBINE BROWN SUGAR THROUGH MESQUITE POWDER. Spread over entire roast. Refrigerate roast in a Ziploc bag for up to 24 hours.
• PLACE APPLE JUICE and VINEGAR in a crock pot and add the spiced shoulder being careful not to lose the rub. Cook on high for two hours, then reduce to low for 10 more hours.
• REMOVE THE ROAST and let rest for 30 minutes.
• PULL roast apart with two forks.
• Making the tacos: HEAT OIL in small fry pan on medium-high until hot. Fry tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side so they're starting to turn crispy but are still quite pliable. Drain on paper towels or paper bag.
• SPREAD SOUR CREAM down the center of each tortilla along with slices of avocado and some cilantro.
• DIVIDE THE PORK equally and top each taco with a portion. Finish with mild green taco sauce to taste and the optional onions and/or cheese.
• FOLD TACO IN HALF and meditate while you lose yourself in culinary heaven!
