Directions

  1. Place the pork in your slow cooker or instant pot with water, onions, garlic, bay leaves, salt and pepper.

  2. Cooking Instructions:

    FOR SLOW COOKER: Cook 4-6 hours on high - remove when pork is shred-able and fork tender.

    FOR INSTANT POT: Cook 65 minutes on normal pressure, allow for a natural pressure release before opening.

  3. Remove and shred pork with 2 forks, removing bones and excess fat.

  4. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and fry the pork in olive oil along with the peppers and adobo sauce until the bits and pieces begin to brown and caramelize. Season with salt and pepper.

  5. Serve a generous helping of the shredded pork over rice of your choice (We chose Saffron Spanish Rice) and top with whatever you have on hand.
