Pork Carnitas

The longer this cooks the more tender the meat gets. It is delicious! We love eating street taco pork carnitas.


2 1/2 lbs pork shoulder (or pork butt)
1 Tbs lime juice
2 tsp coarse sea salt
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp black pepper
garlic salt

Cut the pork into smaller chunks and remove any excess fat. Place pork in the crock pot. Add the rest of the ingredients minus garlic salt together in a bowl then coat the meat with the spices. Cover and cook on high for 4 hours. When tender, shred the meat. Salt the pork with garlic salt as desired. Serve pork carnitas on corn tortillas with any toppings. We eat it with onions, cilantro, lime juice, and guacamole.
