verde slow cooker pulled pork
A slightly different take on the standard "crockpot pulled pork", which I find far too sweet. Heat balanced by fat balanced by a background of smoky cinnamon will be a hit at your next get together, or just keeping the family warm in the winter!

How To Make verde slow cooker pulled pork
-
Step 1Place roast in large slow-cooker, fat side up.
-
Step 2Mix seasoning packet and other spices in a small bowl and rub into roast. Let sit until up to temperature.
-
Step 3Mix enchilada sauce, soups and chile together in a bowl.
-
Step 4Pour wet ingredients over top of the roast until covered, pour remainder into sides.
-
Step 5Cover and cook on Low 10-12 hours, or High 6-8 hours (until the bone comes free and clean out of roast). Longer the better!
