Time 4h15m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 pounds pork shoulder roast
2 (4 ounce) cans diced green chilies, drained
¼ cup chili powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon taco seasoning
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 ½ teaspoons salt, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Place the roast on top of a large piece of aluminum foil. In a small bowl, stir together the green chiles, chili powder, oregano, taco seasoning and garlic. Rub onto the roast. Wrap foil around the roast so that it is completely covered, using additional aluminum foil if necessary. Place on top of a roasting rack in a baking dish, or place a cookie sheet on an oven rack below to catch any leaks.
  • Roast the meat for 3 1/2 to 4 hours in the preheated oven, until falling apart. Cook to at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove from the oven, and shred into small pieces using two forks. Season with salt to taste.

I love how versatile this recipe is. I've used it to make tacos, burritos, and enchiladas. The pork is also great on its own, served with rice and beans. This recipe is a keeper!

I used my Instant Pot to make this recipe, and it was a huge time saver. The pork was cooked in less than an hour, and it was just as tender and juicy as if I had cooked it in the oven for hours. I'll definitely be using my Instant Pot to make this r

I made a few modifications to the recipe to make it healthier. I used lean pork loin instead of pork shoulder, and I roasted the pork in the oven instead of frying it. The tacos were still delicious, and I felt better about eating them knowing that t

I'm usually skeptical of recipes that have a lot of ingredients, but this one is definitely worth the effort. The marinade adds a ton of flavor to the pork, and the roasted pineapple salsa is the perfect topping. I'll be making this again and again!

As a beginner cook, I was hesitant to try this recipe. But I'm so glad I did! The instructions were easy to follow, and the pork turned out amazing. I'm definitely going to be making this again.

I've tried many pork taco recipes over the years, and this one is by far the best. The combination of flavors is spot-on, and the pork is always tender and juicy. I highly recommend this recipe!

This recipe is a great value for the money. Pork shoulder is a relatively inexpensive cut of meat, and it yields a lot of food. I was able to feed my family of four with this recipe for under $20.

This recipe is perfect for parties or potlucks. I doubled the ingredients and made a huge batch of tacos, and they disappeared in minutes. Everyone raved about how delicious they were.

My kids loved these tacos! The pork was tender and juicy, and the pineapple salsa added a fun twist. They're already asking me to make them again next week!

This recipe is a lifesaver on busy weeknights. The pork can be prepped in advance, and it cooks in the slow cooker while I'm at work. When I get home, dinner is ready with minimal effort.

I cooked this pork on my smoker for a few hours, and it was absolutely divine! The meat was fall-apart tender and the smoky flavor was out of this world. This recipe is a must-try for any BBQ enthusiast.

I love how versatile this recipe is. I added some extra chili powder and cumin to the marinade for a spicy kick, and it turned out amazing. The tacos were a huge success with my family.
