Slow Cooker Pork Carnitas for Tacos

It's too hot to cook-- so in comes my slow cooker!

For Pork Carnitas

• 2 1/2 lbs pork shoulder (also known as 'pork butt') cut into 3-4 inch chunks
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• 2 tsp coarse sea salt
• 2 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp chili powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp oregano
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
• 1/4 water (I added this as my pork was a bit dry after the first cooking)

Directions:

1. Cover and cook on high for 4 hours or until very tender.
2. When tender, pull apart with a fork.
3. Serve on warm corn tortillas and top with onions, cilantro, avocado slices and lime juice

My son and I loved this. He said, "ooh, it smells SO good in here!" 

Great tacos and super easy.
