Preparation

Cooking Directions

1. Prepare the Pork Carnitas

In a slow cooker, place the pork shoulder and season with salt. Cook on low for 8 hours or until the pork is tender and easily shreds.

2. Shred the Pork

Once cooked, remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded pork to the cooker to soak up the juices.

3. Warm the Tortillas

In a skillet, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side or until pliable.

4. Assemble the Tacos

Place a generous amount of shredded pork on each tortilla. Top with diced onions, chopped cilantro, and crushed chicharron. Drizzle with salsa verde.

5. Serve

Serve the tacos with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
