slow cooker pulled-pork tacos

I want to share with you a new recipe. It's tried and true—twice, and Yummy with a capital "Y".

{ Slow Cooker Pulled-Pork Tacos }

Ingredients

• 2 cups store-bought salsa, plus more for serving
• 2 tablespoons chili powder
• 2 tablespoons dried oregano
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• kosher salt
• 1 2 1/2-pound boneless pork butt or shoulder, trimmed of excess fat
• 18 corn tortillas
• 1/2 cup fresh cilantro sprigs
• 3/4 cup sour cream
• 1 lime, cut into wedges

Directions

• In a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker, combine the salsa, chili powder, oregano, cocoa, and 1 teaspoon salt. Add the pork and turn to coat.
• Cook, covered, until the meat is tender and pulls apart easily, on high for 4 to 5 hours or on low for 7 to 8 hours.
• Twenty minutes before serving, heat oven to 350° F.
• Stack the tortillas, wrap them in foil, and bake until warm, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, using 2 forks, shred the pork and stir into the cooking liquid. Serve with the tortillas, cilantro, sour cream, lime, and extra salsa.

We like to buy the uncooked tortillas from the grocery store and cook them up on the griddle. It is imperative that you use fresh cilantro. A fresh pico de gallo makes this even better. I will post my favorite pico recipe tomorrow!
