PREPARATION

1
Rub the pork shoulder evenly with sea salt, black pepper, ground cumin, and dried oregano.
2
Place the seasoned pork into a slow cooker along with the minced garlic, chopped white onion, and fresh orange juice.
3
Cover and cook on low heat for 8 hours or high heat for 4 hours until the meat is tender enough to shred easily with a fork.
4
Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it into bite-sized pieces, discarding any large pieces of fat.
5
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the shredded pork in a single layer.
6
Press down with a spatula and sear for 3-5 minutes until the bottom is golden and crispy, then toss and sear for another 2 minutes.
7
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side until soft and pliable.
8
Divide the crispy pork between the tortillas and top with fresh cilantro, diced red onion, and a squeeze of lime juice.
