Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 8 lb bone-in pork butt or shoulder roast
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp dry onion flakes
  • 1 tbsp chile powder or ground chile
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/4 tsp ground cayenne pepper (or more to taste)

Instruction

  • Remove the roast from the packaging and place in the bottom of a large slow cooker.
  • In a small bowl combine the salt, garlic powder, onion powder, onion flakes, chili powder, black pepper, cumin, cloves, and cayenne pepper. Spread this all over the roast, turning the meat to coat all sides.
  • Cook in the slow cooker for 6 hours on high or 8 to 10 hours on low. The meat will be so tender that it will easily shred with tongs or two forks. Remove the bones and fat, and shred the meat.
  • Serve the meat as a filling for tacos, sandwiches, lettuce wraps, burritos, salads, or taquitos.
