PORK RECIPE:
Pork Roast {I like the roasts from Costco that come in the 4 pack} But, I
only cook one roast {unless we are having company for dinner, and then
we make two roasts}.
Garlic Salt
Cumin
Basil Flakes
Oregano Flakes
Onion Powder
2 Cups Water
Thaw the pork roast and place in a crock pot. Pour in about 2 cups of
water. Sprinkle roast and water with garlic salt, cumin, basil and
oregano flakes and onion powder. I actually don't measure these, I just
sprinkle them generously on the roast and water. Cook the pork until it
starts to fall apart.
I cook the pork all 5-6 hours on high {depending on your crock-pot, you may need to adjust times}.
JALAPENO CILANTRO MAYO RECIPE:
2 cups mayo {a few friends have said that 1 1/2 cups is plenty, but I have always used 2 cups)
1/2 bunch of cilantro {leaves only}.
Just wash your cilantro, and hold the bunch in your hand and pull off
the top leafy portion. You do not need to pick off each leaf
individually.
1 clove garlic
1 jalapeno {without seeds unless you like it hot}
2 Tbsp White Vinegar
2 Tbsp Water
1/4 t. pepper
1/2 t. salt
Place all ingredients in your blender and blend until it is smooth. Make
at least 2 hours ahead of time and place in the refrigerator to
thicken.
After the pork is done, remove the meat from the crock pot. Next, strain
out the chunks of fat and sludge. I usually put a bowl in the sink {to
catch the broth}and use a pasta strainer to catch the sludge. Discard
the sludge and save the left over pork broth.
Next, put the meat back in the crock pot and shred the pork. I usually
add some of the broth back in to add moisture and then pour in 1 jar of
green Herdes Verde Sauce. If your pork still seems dry, add more broth
until it's as moist as you prefer.
OTHER INGREDIENTS NEEDED:
White Corn Tortillas
Shredded Green Cabbage
3-4 Limes cut restaurant style.
Warm your white corn tortillas on a griddle prior to eating. We warm up a bunch and wrap them in foil to keep them warm.
Serve with fresh squeezed lime juice, shredded cabbage, and cilantro mayo. ENJOY!
