Ingredients
  • 3 lbs pork shoulder (boneless)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 12 small corn tortillas
  • 1 cup pineapple, diced
  • 1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime
Instructions
  1. 1Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
  2. 2In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
  3. 3Rub the spice mix all over the pork shoulder, ensuring it's evenly coated.
  4. 4In a large Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork on all sides until browned, about 5 minutes per side.
  5. 5Once browned, remove the pork from the pot and set it aside. Add the chicken broth, apple cider vinegar, and brown sugar to the pot, stirring to combine.
  6. 6Return the pork shoulder to the pot, cover with a lid, and place it in the preheated oven. Cook for about 4-5 hours, or until the pork is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
  7. 7Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 20 minutes before shredding it with two forks.
  8. 8While the pork rests, prepare the pineapple salsa by combining diced pineapple, red onion, cilantro, and lime juice in a bowl. Mix and season with salt to taste.
  9. 9Warm the corn tortillas in a skillet until pliable, about 30 seconds on each side.
  10. 10Fill each tortilla with a generous amount of pulled pork and top with pineapple salsa. Serve immediately, enjoy!
