Slow Cooker Meal Worth Sharing


This is not my recipe. In fact, I don't know where I got it. But it is worth sharing. There are only a few recipes for the Slow Cooker that my family likes and this is one of them. I've heard it is compliant with Paelo as well...but you would need to double check that.

Slow Cooker TexMex Carnitas

2-3 lbs pork (butt/shoulder works best)

1 tbsp cumin

2 tsp onion powder

2 tsp chili powder

1 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp. salt

1 tbsp agave/honey

2 tsp. lime juice

2 tbsp. orange juice

1/2 c. barbecue sauce

Instructions

About an hour prior to eating (if possible), shred the pork with a fork and stir.
