Sweet Pulled Pork Tacos with Avocado Cream Sauce Recipe
Ingredients
FOR THE SWEET PULLED PORK:
- 2 cups Your Favorite Salsa
- 4 ounces, weight Canned Green Chilies
- ¼ cups Packed Brown Sugar
- 15 ounces, weight Black Beans, Rinsed And Drained
- 3 pounds Pork Shoulder Roast (or Loin Roast Is Fine, Just Pricer)
- Kosher Salt
FOR THE AVOCADO CREAM SAUCE:
- 4 whole Green Onions, Sliced
- 2 whole Avocados
- 4 Tablespoons Lime Juice
- 2 Tablespoons Sour Cream
- ¼ cups Snipped Cilantro
- 4 cloves Minced Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
FOR THE TOPPINGS:
- Stand And Stuff Taco Shells
- Shredded Lettuce
- 4 whole Green Onions, Sliced
- Cherry Tomatoes, To Serve
Directions:
- For the pulled pork, in the bottom of a large crock pot, mix salsa, green chilies, brown sugar and black beans. Add the pork roast (salted with Kosher salt) and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4-6 hours. Take the meat out of the crockpot and shred with 2 forks. Return to the pot and mix with the sauce and beans. Leave the lid off as you continue making supper to cook away some of the juices.
- To make the avocado cream sauce, slice green onions and mash the avocados. Add lime, sour cream, snipped cilantro, garlic and salt.
- To serve, scoop sweet pork into a baked hard shell. Top with a dollop of avocado cream sauce and shredded lettuce and green onions. Serve with cherry tomatoes on the side.
- Dig into these fresh, easy, delicious tacos! Yum!
Note: My only complaint was that if I made 2 tacos at the same time, the second taco shell got soggy while it waited. Just an FYI, not a deal breaker!
