Slow Cooker Pineapple Pork Tacos
Inspired by a recipe my daughters made at cooking camp, here are some super easy pineapple pork tacos you can throw in your slow cooker on a busy weeknight (hello, fall)! Be sure to pair these with homemade corn tortillas for a truly delicious dinner.
Servings 4 tacos
Ingredients
- 2 pounds pork shoulder or Boston butt roast
- 1/2 onion roughly chopped
- 1/4 pineapple peeled and roughly chopped
- 2 limes juiced
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 4 cloves garlic crushed
- 1 jalapeno seeded and roughly chopped
- 2 teaspoons oregano
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- tortillas, diced pineapple, tomatillo salsa, sour cream, and cilantro for serving
Instructions
