Has It Really Been That Long? (Pulled Pork Tostadas/Tacos)

   I originally started this Blog to try and keep track of all the new recipes I like to try. That didn't work so well, now did it? Oh, well. Let's give it another go.
   I got my inspiration from Justataste.com . I just came cross that site a few days ago and already love it. Here's what I made tonight, in my slow cooker. Some ingredients have been changed to fit what I had in the house. I'll list how I made it.










2-3 lbs Pork Butt Roast
3 Cloves Minced Garlic
Rub garlic into pork and then place into slow cooker.




Then mix and sprinkle over pork:
1 tsp Black Pepper
1 tsp Salt
3 Tbs. Creole seasoning
1 Tbs Cocoa
1 tsp Oregano




Add to slow cooker:
1/2 c Salsa
12 oz Beer (I would imagine you could use broth but surprisingly I didn't have any)
1/2 Orange Juice


Turn on the slow cooker and cook on Low for 8 hours.


Take the meat out without the juice and shred. Serve on tortillas with your favorite topping. We're using corn tortillas, fried up and topped with avocado, sour cream, salsa, cheese, refried beans and red onions. Not necessarily in that order and I'm sure the kids won't use all those toppings but you get the idea.







Corn Casserole

1 can corn, drained
1 can creamed corn
1 stick butter
8 oz sour cream
1 box cornbread mix

Directions:

Melt butter and then add rest of ingredients and stir (some people like to add cheese, cheddar is good. I'll leave that up to you). Put in a greased 8x8 pan. Bake at 350 for 45 min.
It's that easy!
