Slow Cooker Mexican Pulled Pork


 

We have been eating a lot of pork lately because every

store seems to keep having pork on sale. I do different things

with it but I have been wanting to do Mexican pulled

pork for a while now. I found a basic recipe, after the basic

part I'll throw in my flair that I think would be good in it.

This recipe makes about 12 servings.


What you'll need:

3 1/2lb pork loin, shoulder or roast

4T chili powder

1T kosher salt

1T brown sugar

2tsp ground cumin

1tsp cayenne

1tsp oregano

1tsp onion powder

1tsp garlic powder

1/4tsp cinnamon

tortilla wraps

shredded mexican cheese

***My flair...

1 can corn

2 onions

2 bell peppers

1 tub pico

1 tub guacamole (or you can make your own)


Create:

Mix all your dry ingredients together and rub into your pork well.

Brown the pork in a frying pan on high for a few minutes on each

side till you have the whole pork browned. Place the pork in your

crockpot and cover the bottom with some water, just enough to

keep the pork moist.

Cook on low for 8 hours.


When the pork is almost done, sauteed corn, onions and peppers in a pan.

Drain the water off the pork and shred.

Add veggies and toss in.


Put your pulled pork mixture into a wrap, top with pico,

guacamole and cheese, serve and enjoy!

Apple Ginger Fizz for Fall

  The kids deserve a special drink for the fall besides apple cider. This is a great fall mocktail with a beautiful flavor combination. Not just for the kiddos. This makes 1 drink What  you'll need: 3 oz still apple cider 1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice 6 mint leaves 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar Pinch powdered cinnamon 3 oz ginger ale Create: Place apple cider, lime juice, cinnamon, apple cider vinegar and a few ice cubes into a cocktail shaker. If you don't have a shaker, anything with a tight lid will work, such as a mason jar or drink bottle. Clap the mint together in your hands to release the scent, and add to the shaker. Shake for about 20-30 seconds until ingredients are combined. Pour into an ice filled glass and top with ginger ale. Stir gently, garnish with mint, dried citrus or a cinnamon stick, and serve.
