Crockpot Carnitas
I am always looking for new crockpot recipes. I've tried so many at this point I feel like there's nothing "new" to try anymore. I came across this recipe that just spoke to me, and I felt like I had to try it. I am so so glad I did as it was so moist and tasty and I can see it being transformed into different meals other than just Carnitas.
It's almost too simple, 4 ingredients in the crockpot for the most amazing carnitas. That's it, 4!
Crockpot Carnitas
2 lb pork roast
5 slices bacon
2 bay leaves
salt
Line the bottom of your crockpot with 3 slices of bacon
Place the 2 bay leaves on top
Sprinkle salt on your pork roast and place on top of bacon and bay leaves
Place the last 2 slices of bacon over the top of the pork.
Turn slow cooker on low, cook 4-6 hours (could go 8 and still be moist)
Remove meat from slow cooker and shred with two forks
Place back into crockpot juices and stir up.
Serve with corn tortillas, cilantro, green onion, guacamole, salsa, sour cream....your favorite taco toppings.
