Ingredients
- ½ pork loin (around 3 pounds) with a sprinkle of salt and ground black pepper
- 1 can of crushed pineapple (15 ounces), split into portions
- 1 can of chicken broth (14.5 ounces)
- A generous cup of refreshing orange juice
- A small red onion, cut into quarters
- ¼ cup of tangy white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons of zesty lime juice
- 1 chipotle pepper soaked in adobo sauce
- 3 teaspoons of finely chopped garlic
- 2 teaspoons of flavorful chili powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons of sea salt
- 1 ½ teaspoons of aromatic ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon of garlic-infused salt
- 1 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon of onion-infused powder
- 1 teaspoon of fragrant dried oregano
- A package of frozen corn (10 ounces)
Step 1
Prepare this delectable dish by starting with seasoning a pork loin generously with salt and pepper before gently laying it in a slow cooker.
Step 2
Create a flavorful blend by blending together half of a ripe pineapple with fragrant chicken broth, freshly squeezed orange juice, diced red onion, a dash of vinegar, zesty lime juice, a spicy chipotle pepper, a spoonful of adobo sauce, minced garlic, aromatic chili powder, a pinch of salt, earthy cumin, garlic salt, freshly ground black pepper, onion powder, and fragrant oregano. Pour this luscious mixture over the pork and then scatter the remaining pineapple chunks and some frozen corn over the top.
Step 3
Allow the ingredients to meld together by cooking on Low heat for a leisurely 8 hours. Once the pork is tender, shred it into succulent pieces and warm it for an additional hour to further enhance the flavors.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Utilize airtight containers to preserve the freshness of your tender pastor meat, ensuring it remains succulent and full of flavor until you're ready to assemble your tacos.
- 2. Opt for glass containers over plastic ones for storing your homemade salsa and guacamole. This will not only keep them tasting fresh but also prevent any lingering odors or flavors from permeating.
- 3. Store your crispy taco shells in a cool, dry place to maintain their crunchiness. Consider upcycling a decorative tin or mason jar for a stylish storage solution that keeps them protected.
