Crockpot Pork Carnitas

Ingredients

• 4 lbs boneless pork shoulder
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon pepper
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 4 cloves garlic (, minced)
• 2 oranges (, juiced)
• 1 lime (, juiced)

Instructions

1. 1

   In a small bowl, mix together the salt, pepper, ground cumin, chili powder, and oregano. Rub the mixture all over the pork shoulder.

2. 2

   Add the pork shoulder, orange juice, and lime juice to the crockpot. Sprinkle the minced garlic on top.

3. 3

   Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours.

4. 4

   Remove the lid and shred the pork with two forks.

5. 5

   Preheat oven to broil. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil (for easy clean up) and place the shredded pork on the baking sheet. Add a few tablespoons of the juice from the crockpot over the shredded pork (optional, but I prefer to do it).

6. 6

   Broil for 5-10 minutes or until the edges are browned.

7. 7

   Serve with flour or corn tortillas and toppings of choice.
