ingredients
- 1 tsp vegetable oil
- 5 lbs pork shoulder
- 3 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1 large onion, sliced thin
- 15 oz can fire roasted diced tomatoes
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
- Juice of 1 lime
- 6 Bell Peppers
- Cheese (your Choice - I used a little provolone)
directions
For the Pork:
- Brown the pork: Heat the vegetable oil in a 12 inch fry pan over medium-high heat until shimmering. While the pan is heating, sprinkle the pork roast evenly with 3 tsp kosher salt and the black pepper. Put the roast in the pan, fatty side down. Sear the roast for 3 minutes, or until well browned. Flip the roast, and sear for another 3 minutes on the other side. Move the pork roast into the slow cooker.
- Deglaze the pan: Reduce the heat in the fry pan to medium and add the 1/2 cup water. Heat for a minute, then scrape the bottom of the pan to loosen up all the browned bits of pork into the water. Add the rest of the ingredients, stir, bring to a simmer, then pour over the pork in the slow cooker.
- Slow cook the pork: Cover and cook on LOW heat for 10 hours or HIGH heat for 5 hours.
- Take out and Shred
