Crockpot Carnitas, or Ridiculously Easy Mexican Pulled Pork

Submitted by: gabe on October 29, 2020

6 servings

Ingredients

2.5lb pork roast (most cuts will do here, but we use shoulder)
1 can chipotles in adobo (this is spicy, use less or sub salsa in for a milder flavor)
1 cup water
4 cloves garlic (smashed)
adobo seasoning
salt
pepper
cumin

Instructions

Step 1 Add pork, chipotles (or salsa), smashed garlic, and water into crockpot. Step 2 Season the roast with a large pinch of salt, plenty of pepper, a generous pinch of abobo (approx. 2 tsp) and cumin (approx. 1 tsp, or to taste). Step 3 Cook on low for 7-8 hours. Step 4 Remove from heat and shred with two forks. Discard bone and layer of fat on top, if your pork had it. Serve with rice, tortillas, black beans, or anything else you desire.
