The perfect burst of Mexican flavors paired with slow-cooked pulled pork makes an ideal base for tacos that everyone will love. Serve with small corn or flour tortillas and taco fixings. We like black beans, diced tomatoes, avocados, cheese, and lettuce.

This pulled pork is so good, it's worth the wait. The slow cooking process really tenderizes the meat and infuses it with flavor.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover pork. I often make a double batch and freeze the leftovers for later.

This recipe was a disaster! The pulled pork was tough and dry, and the flavors were all wrong.

Overall, I thought this was a good recipe. The pulled pork was tender and flavorful, but I would make a few changes next time, such as using less chili powder and adding some more vegetables.
