Method

Pulled Pork Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Pork

    In a slow cooker, combine pork shoulder, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and apple cider vinegar. Cook on low for 8 hours or until the pork is tender and shreds easily.

  2. 2

    Mix with BBQ Sauce

    Once the pork is cooked, shred it using two forks and mix in the BBQ sauce. Let it warm through.

Crispy Onion Tanglers Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the Onions

    Slice the onion into thin rings. Soak in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 4

    Coat and Fry

    In a bowl, mix flour, cornstarch, salt, and pepper. Dredge the soaked onion rings in the flour mixture, then fry in hot oil until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels.

BBQ Mayo Preparation

  1. 5

    Mix the Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and BBQ sauce. Mix well and set aside.

Assembling Tacos

  1. 6

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the corn tortillas in a skillet. Fill each tortilla with a generous portion of pulled pork, top with crispy onion tanglers, drizzle with BBQ mayo, and garnish with cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.
