PREPARATION

1
Trim excess fat from the pork shoulder and rub all sides thoroughly with sea salt, black pepper, cumin, and dried oregano.
2
Place the seasoned pork into a slow cooker along with the minced garlic and fresh orange juice.
3
Cover and cook on low heat for 8 hours until the meat is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.
4
Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks, discarding any large pieces of fat.
5
Heat the avocado oil in a large cast-iron 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 edges are crispy and golden brown.
7
Warm the corn tortillas in a separate dry pan for 30 seconds per side until pliable.
8
Divide the crispy pork between the tortillas and top with diced red onion, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
