Ingredients

for the pineapple salsa:

Instructions

  • Spray your slow cooker with nonstick spray, then place the pork in your slow cooker.
  • Next, make the sauce: whisk the soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and cornstarch together, then pour the sauce overtop of the pork.
  • Slow cook the pork on LOW for 6 hours. Then, use two forks to shred the pork (it should shred very easily!), then cook for an additional 30 minutes.
  • At this point, you should make the pineapple salsa.
  • Last, heat the tortillas, then top each one with a large spoonful of the pork, then top it with the salsa. Enjoy!

Notes

*Calories are for 1 taco and are an estimation 
*Storage: store leftover pork in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; or, place it in a freezer-safe bag and freeze it for up to 3 months 
*I used boneless pork shoulder; if you use bone-in pork, you may need to cook it for an additional hour
