Great crockpot recipe

Pulled pork tacos! This recipe serves a crowd or if you have a family our size you will have leftovers.



1 onion chopped

1 red pepper chopped

1 green pepper chopped

1 can green chilies

1 can diced tomatoes

1 can whole corn or 1 bag frozen

1 and 1/2 tsp garlic powder

2 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp oregano

1/4-1/2 cayenne pepper

1 pork shoulder roast or picnic roast (3.5 lbs), trim all visible fat





tomato paste 3 Tablespoons

cilantro

cheese

tortillas

sour cream

avocados



Put all top ingredients in crock pot, spoon mixture over top of meat. Cook on high for 5 hours. Remove pork from crock pot and shred meat (it falls apart). Remove most of water from crock pot 1-2 cups. Add 3 tablespoons of tomato paste to mixture in crock pot, add shredded meat back in and stir. Cook on high 30 more minutes! Serve on tortillas like tacos garnishing with your favorite toppings.



Last night I had some mexican rice but I have also served it by itself since it has all sorts of veggies in the mix. This recipe has some spice but is not too hot. Sydney loves it and so does Bill.
