Southwestern Pulled Pork

Total Time Prep: 10 min. Cook: 8 hours

Yield 6-8 servings

The best way to describe this tender pork recipe is "yummy!" Bottled barbecue sauce, canned green chiles and a few other kitchen staples make preparation fast and easy. We like to wrap the seasoned pork in flour tortillas. —Jill Hartung, Colorado Springs, Colorado

Ingredients

2 cans (4 ounces each) chopped green chiles
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
1 cup barbecue sauce
1 large sweet onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 boneless pork loin roast (2 to 2-1/2 pounds)
Flour tortillas
Optional toppings: Sour cream, shredded lettuce and chopped tomatoes

Directions

In a 3-qt. slow cooker, combine the chiles, tomato sauce, barbecue sauce, onion, chili powder, cumin and oregano. Cut pork in half; place on top of tomato sauce mixture. Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours or until meat is tender.
Remove pork. When cool enough to handle, shred meat using 2 forks. Return to slow cooker and heat through. Spread on tortillas; top with sour cream, lettuce and tomatoes if desired; roll up.
