Cook Time 510 minutes

Yield 11

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 1/2 pounds trimmed (boneless pork shoulder blade roast)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
black pepper (to taste)
6 cloves garlic (cut into sliver)
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
1/2 teaspoon sazon (homemade or packaged)
1/4 teaspoon dry oregano
3/4 cup reduced sodium chicken broth

2 bay leaves
1/4 teaspoon dry adobo seasoning (I used Goya)

Steps:

  • Season pork with salt and pepper.
  • In a medium sauté pan on medium-high heat, brown pork on all sides for about 10 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  • Using a sharp knife, insert blade into pork, cutting small holes and insert garlic slivers all the way in so you no longer see them.
  • Season pork generously with cumin, adobo, sazon, oregano all over.
  • Pour chicken broth in the crockpot, add bay leaves and chipotle peppers.
  • Place pork in crock pot and cover.
  • Cook low for 8 hours.

Slow Cooker Carnitas - Tasty - Food videos and recipes image

Have you ever gone out for Mexican food, eaten carnitas, and thought “gosh, I wish I could make this myself”? Well, you can with the help of your slow cooker. Just add pork butt or shoulder to a slow cooker with citrus juice, garlic, onion, and some spices, then let it cook for about eight hours until it's tender and easy to shred with a fork. Then, you can enjoy your home-cooked carnitas in tacos, burritos, or on top of your favourite grains.

Provided by Scott Loitsch

Total Time 8 hours 10 minutes

Cook Time 8 hours 10 minutes

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 lb boneless pork butt, or shoulder, cut into six equal pieces
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon cumin
8 cloves garlic, crushed
1 medium onion, quartered
3 leaves bay leaf
1 lime, juiced
1 large orange, juiced, save the spent halves
tortilla, taco shell
rice
1 can black beans
salsa
guacamole
sour cream
fresh cilantro
1 cup cheese

Steps:

  • Cut pork into 6 equal pieces. Add it to the slow cooker.
  • Add salt, pepper, oregano, cumin, garlic, onion, bay leaves, lime juice and juice the orange. Add orange to the cooker as well. Mix together until the meat is well-coated.
  • Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours, or until the meat pulls apart easily.
  • Remove the pork and transfer to a foil-lined baking sheet. Shred the pork and spread across the baking sheet in a single layer.
  • Pour about 1 cup (235 ml) of the liquid remaining in the slow cooker over the shredded pork. Broil for 5-10 minutes until the meat browns and crisps along the edges.
  • Serve immediately. Great as a filling in tacos, burritos, salads, or nachos!
  • Enjoy!
