    Tender, flavorful pulled pork tacos...some of the best tacos I've ever eaten!!

    Ingredients

    • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
    • 1 teaspoon chili powder
    • 1 teaspoon cumin
    • 2 teaspoons salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    • 1 pork loin (about 1 1/2 pounds), cut into big chunks
    • 1 small onion, peeled and quartered
    • 2 cloves garlic, smashed
    • 1 cup chicken stock
    • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
    • 1 tablespoon honey
    • dash liquid smoke
    • 1 orange, halved and juiced
    • 1 lime, halved and juiced
    • 1 package corn tortillas, warmed

    Directions

    1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
    2. Mix the oregano, chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper together in a small bowl.
    3. Season the cubed pork chunks with the spice mixture and put into a large Dutch oven. Add the onion, garlic, chicken stock, the tomato paste, honey, liquid smoke, orange and lime juice, and the juiced orange and lime halves. Stir together with a wooden spoon. Put the pot on medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer. Transfer to the oven and cook, covered, until the pork is tender and easily shreds, about 1 hour and 45 minutes.
    4. Remove the meat from the Dutch oven to a cutting board. Set the Dutch oven over medium heat and reduce the liquid until it becomes slightly syrupy, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, shred the meat and add to a bowl. Drizzle the reduced cooking liquid into the pork and toss. Serve with tortillas.
    5. *Garnish with shredded cheese, sour cream, lettuce, and cilantro
