PREPARATION

1
Season the pork shoulder evenly with sea salt, black pepper, cumin, and dried oregano.
2
Place the seasoned pork into a slow cooker and pour the orange juice and lime juice over the top.
3
Add the minced garlic clove to the liquid, then cover and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours until the meat is fork-tender.
4
Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it thoroughly using two forks.
5
For the signature carnitas texture, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the shredded pork for 3 to 4 minutes until the edges are crispy.
6
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side until soft and pliable.
7
Divide the shredded pork between the tortillas and garnish with diced red onion and fresh cilantro.
8
Serve immediately with a fresh lime wedge for squeezing over the tacos.
