More keto! This can be served with lettuce wraps or eaten straight depending on how you like it. Macros and calories listed below are per serving of 15 and without lettuce or any other desired toppings not included. This recipe yields a lot of food but I prep for my wife and me for the week. My wife also isn't fond of it being too spicy so feel free to up the amount of jalepeno or add Chipotle or Cayenne pepper sauce to increase the heat to your desire

1/2 tbspCayenne Pepper
1/2 tbspPaprika
1 tspBlack Pepper
1/2 cupBacon Fat
1/4 cupApple Cider Vinegar

Cooking Instructions

1

First dice and chop up all your onions and peppers then add them and garlic to bottom of slow cooker
2

Add Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, 2tbsp bacon fat and can Tomato Sauce to veggies and stir til evenly coated
3

Add seasonings to a bowl and mix
4

Rub the pork roasts with seasonings then place on top of mixture in slow cooker
5

Cook on low heat for 8hrs
6

Slowly lift roasts out of pot and place in large mixing bowl. Leave veggies and sauce in pot and add apple cider vinegar.
7

Shred pork with two forks and let cool for at least 10 minutes
8

This next step is optional but adds the textural components lost from using the slow cooker. In large saute pan (I use my Wok) add a few tablespoons of bacon fat and turn heat on high and grease pan. You want it screaming hot. Then toss in 1/3 of the pulled pork and let it crisp up and stir a few times and then remove and add to separate mixing bowl to cool and repeat the process two more times
9

Portion out pork into portion containers then scoop out sauce from slow cooker over top of pork
10

Enjoy!

This is a recipe I found years ago that I've been adjusting to my taste and putting my spin on finishing it. This pairs very well with my Mojo Lime Slaw.

You can also use any leftover pork for enchiladas and even BBQ pork sandwiches. Just add BBQ sauce.

I concocted my carnita recipe from a few other recipes. All ingredients can be adjusted to your taste. I usually put it in crockpot but I have been known to put in on the grill as well. Some recipes call for added fat but I feel the pork produces enough on it's own it's not needed.

I got this recipe from my friend, Stephanie Fleck. You would never know there’s cinnamon in it unless you were told, but it adds a wonderful flavor! I make a double batch and freeze the leftovers for a quick and easy taco meal.
