Recipe type: crock pot
Serves: 10
Ingredients
  • 3 lbs pork tenderloin
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 3 Tbsp minced garlic
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 3 Tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 Tbsp ground cumin
  • 1 Tbsp Montreal Steak Seasoning
  • 1 tsp seasoned salt
  • 2 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1 tsp lemon pepper seasoning
  • 3 bay leaves
Instructions
  1. Place onions at the bottom of the slow cooker. Add pork tenderloin (I had to cut mine in half to fit in the crock pot).
  2. Spread garlic over pork. Pour orange juice, white wine vinegar, and lemon juice over pork.
  3. Sprinkle all spices onto the pork (the pork will literally be covered in spice). Add bay leaves to the juices next to the pork.
  4. Cover crock pot and cook on low for approximately 8 hours, or until pork shreds easily with a fork. (Note: I flipped my pork about halfway through so that both sides were equally soaked in the spiced juices).
  5. Shred pork with a fork - it may be easier to remove pieces of meat to a plate or cutting board to shred, but I left all of the meat in the juices after shredding. Note: I had to remove several pieces of fat at this point.
  6. Serve warm with Coconut and Black Eyed Peas Rice (the combination works beautifully as a burrito).
