Dr Nick's Pork Soft Tacos image

A 'pulled pork' recipe I came up with, inspired by my local El Salvadorian restaurant. Great for those who aren't fans of sweet BBQ sauce-based versions (like me!). Try it with Recipe #17126.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 6h30m

Yield 12-24 small tacos

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 -2 lb pork loin roast
1 tablespoon dried onion flakes
2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon beef bouillon powder
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried chili pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried chipotle powder
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 -2 cup water

Steps:

  • Wash your hands!
  • Trim excess fat from roast.
  • Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl and rub over the entire surface of the pork.
  • Place pork in a slow cooker. Add water until roast is approximately half submerged. Add vinegar and remaining dry ingredients to the water and stir.
  • Place slow cooker on low and leave for 6-8 hours, turning occasionally if you can.
  • Remove roast from slow cooker. At this stage it's easy to remove any membrane that may be attached to the surface. Shred the pork using two forks and transfer to a large frying pan.
  • Add about half the liquid to the pan and simmer gently until most of the liquid has reduced. You want the meat to be moist but not swimming.
  • Serve in pre-warmed corn tortillas. I add chopped tomato and spanish onion with just a few drops of hot sauce.
  • Enjoy!

These tacos were a hit at my party! The pork was tender and juicy, and the soft tortillas were the perfect complement. I'll definitely be making these again.
