Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Pork

   Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the pork shoulder and sear on all sides until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the pork and set aside.

   Combine Ingredients

   Return the pork to the pot. Add diced tomatoes, chicken broth, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper, and bay leaves. Stir to combine.

   Cook

   Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for 2 to 2.5 hours, or until the pork is tender and easily shredded.

5. 5

   Shred and Serve

   Remove the pork from the pot and shred it with two forks. Return the shredded pork to the pot and stir in chopped cilantro. Serve hot.
