Slow Cooker Mexican Pulled Pork Tacos Recipes

Steps:

• Put the ancho and pasilla chiles and the garlic in a bowl; add 2 to 3 tablespoons water. Microwave on high until soft and pliable, 2 to 3 minutes. Stem and seed the chiles; peel the garlic. Transfer the chiles and garlic to a blender.
• Add the chipotles, onion, 2 tablespoons olive oil, honey, vinegar, 1 tablespoon salt and the oregano to the blender; puree until smooth. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over high heat; add the chile sauce and fry, stirring, until thick and fragrant, about 8 minutes. Pour in the broth and reduce until slightly thickened.
• Season the pork all over with salt and pepper and transfer to a large slow cooker. Add the bay leaves and cinnamon stick, then pour in the sauce. Cover and cook on high until the meat is tender, about 5 hours. (Or cook the meat in a large Dutch oven, covered, for 1 hour 45 minutes at 350 degrees; uncover and cook 30 more minutes.)
• Discard the bay leaves and cinnamon stick. Shred the pork with 2 forks; season with salt and pepper. Serve the shredded pork in the tortillas, along with toppings.

Steps:

• For the pulled pork: In a small bowl, mix together the cumin, coriander, salt and oregano. Rub the spice mixture all over the pork roast.
• Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork roast and brown on all sides, about 3 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, in a 3 1/2-quart slow cooker, combine the onion, garlic, chipotle and adobo sauce, beer, and orange zest. Add the browned roast along with any pan juices. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 6 hours.
• When the pork is cooked and fork tender, shred it using two forks. Add the shredded meat back to the slow cooker and toss with the onions and cooking juices. Keep warm in the slow cooker for people to help themselves and assemble the tacos with all the garnishes.

Steps:

• Place the first 7 ingredients in a bowl and mix.
• Place the pork shoulder in the Crock Pot (slow cooker) and rub all over with the seasoning mixture.
• Pour the jar of salsa around the pork shoulder.
• Cook on low heat for 8-12 hours.
• Remove the pork to a plate and using 2 forks, shred the into bite size pieces (I like to remove the visible pieces of fat).
• Pour a scoop or two of the juices into the pork and stir to combine (If you want to remove the excess fat from the juice you will use, pour it into a cup and refrigerate it until the fat solidifies and can be easily scooped out. Only the juices will remain).
• Place the pork into the tortillas.
• Serve with desired accompaniments.

Steps:

• In a 4-6 quart slow cooker, combine salsa, chili powder, oregano, cocoa and salt.
• Add pork and turn to coat.
• Cook covered on high 4-5 hours or low 7-8 hours.
• Shred with 2 forks and stir into cooking liquid.
• Serve with warm tortillas, cilantro, lime, salsa and anything else you like in your tacos or burritos.

Steps:

• Put the marinade ingredients in a large, zip-seal freezer bag and squish until well combined. Add the pork and onion, ensuring they're well coated. Seal and put in the fridge overnight.
• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Transfer the pork and its marinade to a medium casserole dish. Cover with a lid and place in the oven for 4-5 hrs or until the pork is very tender and falls apart when poked with a fork.
• To make the pickled onions, put the sliced red onions in a heatproof bowl. Cover with just-boiled water and leave to stand for 10 mins. Drain well, then stir in the white wine vinegar or cider vinegar and caster sugar. Stand for at least 10 mins before serving.
• Drain the pork in a colander, reserving the marinade, then transfer the pork to a board. Shred the pork with two forks, drizzle over 4-5 tbsp of the reserved marinade, and serve from the board with the pickled red onions, warmed corn tacos, shredded lettuce and soured cream.

Steps:

• Cut meat into large chunks; place in slow cooker. Sprinkle with cumin. Add barbecue sauce and orange juice; cover with lid.
• Cook on LOW 6 to 8 hours (or on HIGH 4 to 5 hours). Remove meat from slow cooker; cut into small pieces or shred with 2 forks. Place in medium bowl. Add salsa and 1 cup of the cooking liquid; mix lightly.
• Spoon meat mixture into taco shells; top with avocados, cabbage and cheese. Serve each with a lime piece to squeeze over tacos before serving.

Steps:

• Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper. In large Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat; brown pork all over. Transfer to slow cooker.
• Add onions, garlic and chili powder to Dutch oven; fry, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened, about 4 minutes.
• Add chicken stock, stirring to scrape up brown bits from bottom of pan; scrape into slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 10 hours or until pork is tender.
• If you do not have time, you could omit step 1-3 and just add everything to the cooker as it is. I think that step 1-3 does add flavour, though.
• Transfer pork to cutting board. Trim off excess fat; with 2 forks, shred pork. Return pork to slow cooker.
• Add corn, salsa and tomato paste. Cover and cook on high for 15 minutes or until thickened. Stir in coriander.
• Serve in bowl along with basket of taco shells for everyone to spoon mixture into.
• Serve lettuce, tomatoes cheese and sour cream in separate small bowls for everyone to garnish tacos.
