Tips:

  • For the best results, use a pork shoulder or butt roast. These cuts are tough but become tender and flavorful when cooked slowly.
  • If you don't have time to marinate the pork overnight, you can marinate it for at least 30 minutes.
  • Be sure to brown the pork in a skillet before adding it to the slow cooker. This will help to develop the flavor and prevent the pork from drying out.
  • Add plenty of liquid to the slow cooker. This will help to keep the pork moist and flavorful.
  • Cook the pork on low for 8-10 hours, or until it is fall-apart tender.
  • Serve the pulled pork fajitas with your favorite toppings, such as guacamole, sour cream, salsa, and cheese.

Conclusion:

Slow cooker pulled pork fajitas are a delicious and easy meal that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover pork. With a little planning, you can have a delicious and healthy meal on the table in no time.
