My favorite easy way to cook pork for burritos or taco filling. I prefer using a slow cooker for this so I don't have to watch it. If you do it on the stove top, be careful not to burn it. Simmer slowly, stir frequestly. It will take about 3-4 hours on the stove or 6-8 in the crockpot.

Time 6h30m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 lbs lean pork, cut into 2-3-inch pieces
2 tablespoons cooking oil
2 large onions, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 (16 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice
3 -6 fresh chili peppers, chopped (havanero or jalapeno depending on the level of heat desired)
3 bay leaves
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon ground oregano
1 -2 cup water

Steps:

  • Heat oil in large pan until hot.
  • Add pork, stir until browned.
  • Add onion, garlic and chilies, cook and stir until onions are tender.
  • Add all spices and stir.
  • Add enough water to just cover meat.
  • Put in crock-pot on Hi for 6-8 hours until meat shreds. (You can help it by pulling meat apart with forks or by pressing meat onto side of pan when almost done.).
  • If not using crock-pot, simmer on top of stove on low heat for 3-4 hours until meat shreds, adding more water if needed to prevent sticking.
  • Serve with taco shells or as burritos with beans, sour cream, guacamole, etc.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but it was still very good. I'll definitely make it again, but I'll use less chili powder next time.
