Crockpot Pork Carnitas
- 1 Pork Shoulder Or Butt (2 To 3 Lb. Size)
- Cajun Seasoning (or Adobo Seasoning)
- 3 Chipotle Peppers In Adobo Sauce
- 3/4 cups Chicken Broth
- 6 cloves Garlic
- 1 Tablespoon (to 2 Tablespoons) Olive Oil
- Flour Tortillas, To Serve
- Various Fixings (Avocado, Pico De Gallo, Etc.), To Serve
- Rub your pork shoulder or butt with seasoning.
- Toss in a crock pt with chipotle peppers, broth and garlic.
- Cook on low for 6-8 hours.
- After the pork cooks for several hours, break it apart.
- I just stabbed it with a meat fork and it fell apart.
- Then when you are ready to put it all together, get a skillet on the stove hot with 1-2 tablespoons oil (medium high heat).
- Then drain the pork and toss it in.
- This will give it crispy edges and make it taste like authentic carnitas meat.
- You can fix your tacos with whatever toppings or sides you want.
- I used low carb tortillas, avocado, pico de gallo and sauteed bell pepper.
- For sides I had rice, beans and corn on the cob.
