Recipe PDFIngredients
4-7 pound pork loin roast, excess fat trimmed away
1 bulb of garlic, minced
2 tablespoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 large onions, sliced
2 large carrots, peeled and cut into fourths
2 oranges, halved
2 tablespoons lime juice (about 1 lime), halved
2 apples, cored and cut into 8 pieces
Instructions
- Before you begin wash your hands, surfaces, utensils, fruits, and vegetables.
- In a small bowl, combine garlic, cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Rub mixture over entire roast.
- Place half of the onion slices and all of the carrot pieces in the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Add roast to the slow cooker. Wash hands with soap and water after handling the raw roast.
- Top with remaining sliced onion.
- Squeeze oranges and lime onto the pork. Leave orange and lime halves in the slow cooker.
- Cook on low for 7 hours and 40 minutes. Add sliced apples and continue cooking for an additional 20 minutes.
- Remove the pork and once cool enough to handle, shred.
- Serve with vegetables and apples from the slow cooker.
Tips
- To serve this meat as carnitas, reserve the liquid from the slow cooker. Set your oven to a low broil and spread the shredded meat in a thin layer on a large foil-covered baking sheet. Pour 1 cup of the reserved liquid over the meat and broil until meat starts to get crispy.
- Firmer apples will yield better results. If you only have baking apples, you can put them in the slow cooker 10 minutes later than the recipes calls.
