Crockpot Shredded Pork For Burritos
Shredded pork for burritos, made with a boneless pork shoulder or Boston butt, seasonings and garlic, then assembled with tortillas and toppings of your choice. Serve this pork with flour tortillas, rice, refried beans, and tomatoes. Pork loin works in this recipe as well, but the shredded pork will be a bit chewier.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pork roast, a pork shoulder or butt, about 4 pounds
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 medium cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 4 to 6 flour tortillas
  • shredded Monterey Jack cheese, optional
  • .
  • Topping Suggestions:
  • chopped seeded tomato
  • diced onion
  • shredded lettuce
  • sour cream
  • guacamole
  • shredded cheese
  • sliced ripe olives

Preparation:

Place the pork roast in a crockpot sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, then add minced garlic and water. Cover and cook on LOW for 9 to 11 hours, or until pork roast is very tender. Lift pork out of the slow cooker with a slotted spoon. Shred and serve with warmed flour tortillas, with dishes of shredded cheese and your choice of topping ingredients at the table.
This spicy shredded pork recipe serves 4 to 6.

We used this recipe to take along for a weekend with friends at a mountain cabin. It was very handy to have all the cooking performed at home in advance. Everyone loved it, even the second time around when we returned home. I went heavier on the garlic and used kosher salt. This is a very easy recipe: just dump everything in the crockpot in the morning and forget about it until that night!
