Servings: 8 Servings
Equipment
Ingredients
- 3-4 pounds boneless pork shoulder (Note 1)
- 2 cups salsa verde (Note 2)
- 1 cup chicken broth (Note 3)
- 1 4 ounces diced green chiles, canned (Note 4)
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 lime, juiced
Instructions
- In a slow cooker that will fit the pork roast, add the roast, salsa verde, chicken broth, canned green chiles, cumin, and salt. Stir to combine. Add the lid and set it to low for 8-10 hours or until an internal temperature of 210 degrees F. The pork should be easy to shred, but not mushy.
- Once the pork falls apart easily, remove it from the crock pot and shred with two forks. Squeeze the fresh lime juice over the shredded pork.
- Serve the shredded pork wrapped in a tortilla, as a rice bowl topping, nachos, on baked potatoes, or in quesadillas. There are so many options.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Once cool, you can freeze it for up to 3 months.
Notes
Note 1: Not sure what type of pork roast to buy? See the guide above to help you determine the best fit for you and this recipe.
Note 2: For my low FODMAP friends, use either low FODMAP salsa verde recipe or purchase a certified low FODMAP salsa verde. For everyone else, use your favorite salsa verde!
Note 3: If concerned about FODMAPs, use a certified low FODMAP chicken broth or one you can tolerate.
Note 4: Choose a spice level that works best for your taste buds and tummy.
Optional Step 1: For extra flavor, brown the pork roast in a skillet first and sear all sides before adding it to the slow cooker. Totally optional, but adds a delicious boost of flavor.
Low FODMAP Notes: Low FODMAP ingredient information is based on the Monash University Food App and FODMAP Friendly App testing results.
