Weekly SIMPLE Recipes-1 Pulled Pork Tacos
Making the pork roast in your slow-cooker means its simple to prepare and deliciously tender. Flavoring it with a bottled enchilada sauce or salsa gives it a rich Mexican flavor. Assemble a variety of toppings so everyone can build their own taco. If your family likes crisp corn taco shells, go ahead and substitute. A nice fresh fruite salad would be outstanding alongside.ingredients
- 1 2-1/2- to 3-pound boneless pork shoulder roast
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup enchilada sauce or bottled salsa
- 4 8-inch soft flour tortillas or taco shells
- Assorted toppers, such as shredded lettuce, finely shredded Mexican-blend cheese, chopped tomato, sliced pitted ripe olives, and/or chopped avocado
- Dairy sour cream (optional)
directions
- Trim fat from pork. If necessary, cut pork to fit in a 3-1/2- or 4-quart slow cooker. Place pork in cooker. Add broth. Cover; cook on low-heat setting for 8 to 10 hours or on high-heat setting for 4 to 5 hours. Remove meat from cooker; discard broth. Using two forks, shred meat, discarding any fat. Reserve 2 cups of the meat. (Place remaining meat in an airtight container for another use; refrigerate up to 3 days or freeze up to 3 months.)
- In a medium saucepan, combine reserved 2 cups meat and the enchilada sauce. Cover and cook over medium-low about 10 minutes or until heated through, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, warm flour tortillas according to package directions.
- To assemble tacos, place pork mixture in center of warm tortillas or in taco shells. Top as desired with lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, olives, and/or avocado. If desired, serve with sour cream. Makes 4 servings.
