Equipment

  • Slow Cooker

Ingredients

  • 4 lb. pork butt (boneless)
  • 1/3 cup fresh orange juice (1 large orange)
  • 1/3 cup fresh lime juice (2-3 limes)
  • 2 tsp. salt
  • 2 tsp. cumin
  • 1 tsp. paprika
  • 2 tsp. oregano
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)

Instructions

  • Cut the pork butt into 4 equal-sized pieces. Add to the slow cooker.
  • In a mixing bowl, add the orange juice, lime juice, salt, cumin, oregano and garlic. Mix to make a sauce.
  • Pour the sauce over the pork. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours until tender.
  • For optional crisping of the pork, transfer the cooked pork to a sheet pan. Turn oven to broil (high). Shred pork with two forks and spread it out across the sheet pan. Take 1/4 cup of the sauce from the slow cooker and sprinkle it over the pork.
  • Transfer to the oven and broil about 5 minutes or until the tops of the pork start to turn brown and crispy. Serve immediately.
