Midnight Marinated Pork Tacos

Servings: 2

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 2 hours

Total Time: 2 hours 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 500 grams Pork Shoulder
  • 4 cloves Garlic
  • 2 teaspoons Chipotle Chili Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Oregano
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper
  • 1 cup Orange Juice
  • 1/4 cup Lime Juice
  • 4 pieces Corn Tortillas
  • 1 piece Red Onion
  • 1/4 cup Cilantro
  • 1 piece Avocado
  • 1 piece Lime

Instructions:

  1. Combine garlic, chipotle chili powder, oregano, cumin, salt, pepper, orange juice, and lime juice in a bowl. Stir until it becomes a marinade.
  2. Put the pork shoulder in a large ziplock bag, pour the marinade over it and seal the bag. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
  3. After marinating, place the pork shoulder along with the remaining marinade in a slow cooker. Cook it on low for about 2 hours until the pork is tender and can be pulled apart easily.
  4. Once cooked, shred the pork using two forks. Then, return the shredded pork back to the slow cooker to soak up more of the juices.
  5. To assemble the tacos, place a good amount of pork on each tortilla. Top with chopped red onions, cilantro, sliced avocados and squeeze some lime juice over it.
  6. Finish with a little extra chipotle powder (if desired) and enjoy your Midnight Marinated Pork Tacos that are perfect for any midnight cravings!
