I'm always looking for new ways to reinvent the taco (not that it needs to be reinvented) and this recipe fits the bill perfectly!! It's smoky, sweet, savory, and all around delicious! Despite the mildly intimidating ingredients, the recipe is a cinch to throw together, and the perfect meal to complete a busy day!
1 pound pork roast
4 tsp liquid smoke - found in BBQ sauce section
2 tsp salt
2 cups shredded cabbage
1/2 red onion sliced thin
1/4 c cilantro chopped
sauce:
1/4 c ketchup
1/4 c soy sauce
1/3 c pineapple juice
1 tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp. brown sugar
1/4 tsp ginger
Corn tortillas and queso fresco for serving
Place pork roast in crock pot and add liquid smoke and salt. Cook on low for 8 hours.
When pork is done, shred it with two forks and toss in the residual liquid.
For the sauce, combine all the sauce ingredients in a sauce pan and whisk over medium high heat until the liquid boils. Reduce to a simmer and allow to thicken.
For the Cabbage slaw mix the cabbage, red onions, and cilantro together in a bowl.
Assemble tacos by layering the pork, then the cabbage slaw, top with a drizzle of BBQ sauce and then queso fresco...ENJOY!!!
