Crock-Pot Pork Carnitas
- 4 pounds boneless pork shoulder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 oranges juiced
- 1 lime juiced
- In a small bowl, mix together the salt, pepper, ground cumin, chili powder, and oregano. Rub the mixture all over the pork shoulder.
- Add the pork shoulder, orange juice, and lime juice to the crockpot. Sprinkle the minced garlic on top.
- Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours.
- Remove the lid and shred the pork with two forks.
- Preheat oven to broil. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil (for easy clean up) and place the shredded pork on the baking sheet. Add a few tablespoons of the juice from the crockpot over the shredded pork (optional, but I prefer to do it).
- Broil for 5-10 minutes or until the edges are browned.
- Serve with flour or corn tortillas and toppings of choice.
