This Mexican Pulled Pork is a great weeknight throw together, as in throw everything into the crock pot or slow cooker (whichever you prefer) and just forget about it. Â It makes a wonderful taco filling for taco night!!
Actually you could use this meat a lot of different ways-tacos, quesadillas, pizza, nachos…….let your imagination run wild!! Â I served it on pita bread as my taco shell and topped with the traditional toppings of cheddar, tomato, avocado, you know.
Anyway, this is one meal I turn to often because it makes a large amount and as I said you can do so many different things with it. Â I will often get 3 meals out of this one recipe! Â We usually just have tacos the first night. Â The next meal is quesadillas with some refried beans and then it depends on how much is left for the third- sometimes I turn it into a mexican pizza, yum!
However you decide to use this versatile mexican pulled pork, I’m sure your family will love it!
