Ingredients
- FOR THE PULLED PORK:
- 3 pounds Pork Roast
- ¼ cups Apple Cider Vinegar
- ¼ cups Olive Oil
- 2 Tablespoons Maple Syrup
- 2 Tablespoons Water
- ½ Tablespoons Crushed Red Pepper
- ½ Tablespoons Paprika
- ½ Tablespoons Salt
- FOR THE TACOS:
- Corn Tortillas, Blackened
- Queso Fresco
- Sour Cream
- Cilantro Leaves, Fresh
- White Onion, Diced
- Lime Wedges
- Avocados, Sliced
Preparation
For the pulled pork:
In a small bowl, mix together all the ingredients but the pork. Place the pork roast in a slow cooker or crockpot and pour the sauce mixture over it.
Turn the cooker to low and cook for 7 to 8 hours. The meat will become very tender and easily fall apart when pulled.
When the pork is finished cooking, place it on a cutting board and pull/cut it apart with a fork and a sharp knife.
For the tacos:
To blacken the tortillas, use a small frying pan over medium-high heat. Simply place each tortilla in the pan for a few seconds, until it has very dark brown/black spots. Then turn it over to do the same on the other side.
Dice the onion, cut the limes into wedges, and slice the avocados. Tear the cilantro, and crumble the cheese. Spoon the sour cream into a bowl.
To assemble the tacos, place a few tortillas on each plate, and add as much pulled pork as you like. Top with the remaining toppings, and enjoy.
Note: Cooking the meat for so long on such low heat makes it extremely tender and easy to pull. It also makes it absolutely delicious.
