Slow Cooker Carnitas Recipe
Ingredients:
2 lbs pork shoulder
1/2 c orange/orange juice
1/4 c lime juice
7 cloves garlic
1/2 tbls kosher salt
1 tbls cumin
1/2 c beef broth
12 corn tortillas
1 c salsa
1 avocado
Directions:
1. Use a 6 quart slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine the salt and cumin. Rub mixture all over the pork, then plop into the slow cooker. Add whole garlic cloves. Squeeze on the citrus, and pour the beef broth evenly over the top.
2. Cook on low for 8-10 hours, or until the pork shreds quite easily with a fork. If your meat is still fully intact after 8 hours, remove and cut into chunks, then return to the crock and flip to high for about an hour or two.
3. Shred meat fully and serve on warmed corn tortillas with desired toppings.
