Step 1

Place pork tenderloins in crock-pot and sprinkle with spices. Add chilis, lime juice, and orange juice.

Step 2

Cook on low heat for 6-8 hours or high for about 4 hours. Pork should be easily shreddable when done.

Step 3

Use two forks to shred pork, adjust seasoning level if desired and simmer another half hour.

Step 4

Preheat broiler and transfer shredded pork to a baking sheet, spread out in a medium-thin layer, leaving any juices in the crock-pot.

Step 5

Broil on low for about 5 minutes until it starts to get crisp but is not burnt or dried out. Remove pork and toss with reserved cooking liquid to moisten.

Step 6

Stir in fresh cilantro and serve withĀ taco fixings or over Mexican flavored rice. Taco fixing ideas: pickled red onions, queso fresco, salsa, cheese, lime, guacamole, tomato, lettuce, black olives or whatever else you prefer.
