CROCK POT NACHOS RECIPES

Steps:

• Season the pork with salt, garlic powder and red pepper flakes and place it into the slow cooker.
• Mix together the broth, vinegar and Worcestershire sauce and pour it over the pork.
• Pour the honey over and set the timer for 4 hours on High or 6-8 hours on low.
• Once the pork is cooked and tender (it should shred easily with a fork), remove from slow cooker with tongs into a serving dish.
• Break apart lightly with two forks and put back into the slow cooker.
• Ladle 1/2 cup sauce over the pork and keep warm until ready to eat.

Steps:

• Brown meat in a large deep skillet on medium-high heat; season with generously with salt and a little pepper. Use a wooden spoon to break the meat up into small pieces.
• When meat is no longer pink, drain all the liquid from pan. Add the onions, garlic and bell peppers to the meat and cook an addition 3-4 minutes.
• Transfer the meat to the slow cooker, then add tomato, cilantro, tomato sauce, 1 1/4 cups water, alcaparrado (or olives) [I usually add some of the brine from the jar for added flavor] then add the spices.
• Set slow cooker to HIGH for 3 to 4 hours or LOW for 6 to 8.
• After it's ready, taste for salt and add more as needed [I added a little more cumin and garlic powder at the end as well since the crock pot tends to mute the flavors of herbs and spices].
• Discard the bay leaves and serve over brown rice.
• Makes about 5 3/4 cups.
