Ingredients

For the Pork Tacos

  • 3-4 pounds pork butt
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon Lawry's Garlic Salt with Parsley
  • 1 bottle Herdez Tomatillo Salsa (mild green salsa)

For the Fresh Corn and Olive Salsa

  • 3 ears of corn corn removed
  • ½ cup black olives sliced
  • ¼ cup fresh chopped cilantro
  • 1 large red bell pepper diced
  • 2 tablespoons diced red onion
  • pinch of kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper

For the Avocado Mash

  • 1 ripe avocados
  • pinch of salt and black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

For the Spanish Rice

  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 medium white onion diced
  • 4 cloves fresh garlic minced
  • 2 cups steamed white rice
  • 1 small can of tomato sauce
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

Instructions

For the Pork Tacos

  • Place all but salsa into a crockpot on low heat for 6-8 hours. I usually cook overnight, so longer is just fine too. Remove pork from liquid, discard or save liquid for another use.
  • Shred pork into small pieces, return back to crockpot and add salsa. Cook on low until ready to serve. Serve in soft tortilla bread or regular corn tortillas along with fresh corn and olive salsa below and avocado mash.

For the Fresh Corn and Olive Salsa

  • Place all into a large bowl; stir to combine. Serve with tacos.

For the Avocado Mash

  • Mix all ingredients into a bowl and mash with fork until well combined. Spoon over tacos.

For the Spanish Rice

  • Heat oil into a large skillet over medium heat. Saute onion until softened. Add garlic; cook for 1 minute then add steamed rice. Stir to combine flavors then add tomato sauce, salt, pepper and cumin. Stir to combine. Keep on warm until serving. Can mixed in cooked shredded chicken, corn, black olives and cilantro for a main dish as well.
