Crock-pot Pork Carnitas
Ingredients:
2 pounds pork tenderloin roast
1 medium onion, diced
1 teaspoon cumin
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa
1 (10 ounce) can Ro-Tel
Tortillas
Toppings - cheese, salsa, sour cream, lettuce, tomato, etc...
I only made the 2 pounds but I really should have made more. It was that good...
Instructions:
Place the roast and onion in gallon-sized freezer bag. Sprinkle in cumin, then add salsa & Ro-tel. Zip closed and place in freezer. When ready to use, thaw in fridge for 24 hours. Empty contents into crock-pot and cook on low for 8 - 10 hours.
Once cooked, remove roast from crock-pot and shred.
Drain juice out of crock-pot, reserving some in a small bowl. Leave onions and tomatoes in crock-pot. Add meat back in the crock-pot and stir. Add some more of the reserved juice back in. Or in my case, I just left a little in the crock-pot.
Serve on tortillas with desired toppings.
