What a tasty way to cross the border and not leave your house! Add fresh veggies and sour cream to the tortilla and then add the meat. Yum!

How To Make crock pot carnitas

Step 1

Place bay leaves in the bottom of the crock pot. Mix all spices together. Coat one side of roast with spices & place on top of leaves & sprinkle the rest of the spices on roast. Pour broth around the sides of the roast, careful not to wash off spices. Cover and cook on low for 9 hours. Remove and shred with a fork. Use liquid as needed to moisten meat. Fill tortillas with whatever fixings you like.
