Slow Cooker Salsa Verde Pulled Pork

Ingredients

  • Pork
  • 16 ounces prepared salsa verde (green salsa)
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic (about 4 cloves)
  • 2 teaspoons Dixie Crystals Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 pork loin (2-1/2 to 3-pounds), trimmed of excess fat
  • For serving
  • Prepared rice or corn tortillas
  • Shredded cheese
  • Sour cream
  • Freshly chopped cilantro
  • Lime wedges

Directions

  1. In a 4-quart or larger Crockpot, stir together salsa, chili powder, cumin, garlic, sugar and salt. Add pork and turn to coat, spooning some of the salsa over top. Cook, covered, until meat is cooked through and fork-tender, 6 hours on low or 4 hours on high.
