Shredded Pork
This is an amazing shredded pork recipe. It is easy to prepare and simmers in a slow cooker all day, ready to enjoy when you arrive home. I serve it
over rice (laced with lime juice and fresh cilantro), Cheddar cheese, salsa, guacamole, and a dollop of sour cream.
Original recipe yield: 6 servings.
INGREDIENTS:
1 (3 pound) boneless pork loin roast, cut into 2 inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 (4 ounce) cans diced green chile peppers
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1/4 cup chipotle sauce
3 1/4 cups water, divided
1 1/2 cups uncooked long grain white rice
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
DIRECTIONS:
Place the roast in a slow cooker, and season with salt. Place chile peppers and garlic on top of roast. Pour in the chipotle sauce and 1/2-cup water.
Cover, and cook 7 hours on Low.
In a pot, bring remaining 2 3/4 cups water and rice to a boil. Mix in the limejuice and cilantro. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 20 minutes.
Remove roast from the slow cooker, and use two forks to shred. Return pork to the slow cooker, and allow to sit 15 minutes to absorb some of the
liquid. Serve over the cooked rice.
Yummy! 
The SAME boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg. It's about what you are made of NOT the circumstance.

Bob...
That looks like an easy recipe with tasty results - going to have to take a hunk-a-pork out of the freezer and try it this week!
What do you use for the 1/4 cup chipotle sauce? Are you talking about something like Tabasco's Chipotle Sauce?
Thanks for sharing!

That's what I use - Tabasco's Chipotle Sauce.
Hope to see you and Pat in El Rosario the end of July.

Please pardon my ignorance, but does a "slow cooker" mean an electric crock- pot? Can this method of slow cooking be done on the stove safely without
spending your whole day babysitting the pot?

I use a crock pot, but I've always been around to stir and move the ingrediants around during the day. I think it would be OK on Low without
babysitting the pot, but I've never done it that way myself.

This is a great time to put this on the board. Today is my birthday, and as a dinner item last night, my wife put a pork in our crock pot, and this
morning, shredded it, and just an hour ago made up the sauce. Then this comes on. Will compare the two, and have an option next time we prepare it
again. Always looking for interesting recipes.

Bob...made some of your 'Faux Carnitas' this weekend...
Threw together a batch in the old crock pot Sat night - let it simmer o'night and 'processed' it Sun morning.
I used more diced chili's - had a 27 oz can...and some Smoked chipotle Salsa. It came out great!
We had make-it-yourself tacos/burritos for Dad's Day, along with some yummy Chili Rellenos from our local Mexican Market in Lodi - what a 'feed'!
I'm still getting by on left-overs tonight! Thanks for the reciepe!
Regards, Ray
