This is an amazing shredded pork recipe, similar to what you'd eat in a rice bowl or enchilada at a Mexican restaurant. It's so easy, just simmer it in the slow cooker all day so it's ready to enjoy when you arrive home. I serve it over lime and cilantro rice with Cheddar cheese, salsa, guacamole, and a dollop of sour cream.

Ingredients

1 boneless pork loin roast , 3 pound
0.5 teaspoons salt
2 cans diced green chile peppers , 4 ounce
3 cloves garlic , crushed
3.25 cups water , divided
0.25 cups chipotle sauce
1.5 cups uncooked long grain white rice
0.25 cups fresh lime juice
0.25 cups chopped cilantro

Instructions

1

Season roast with salt and place into a slow cooker. Scatter chile peppers and garlic over roast. Pour in 1/2 cup water and chipotle sauce. Cover and cook on Low for 7 hours.
2

When roast is almost finished, bring remaining 2 3/4 cups water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Mix in lime juice and cilantro. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes. Keep warm.
3

Remove roast from the slow cooker and use two forks to shred meat. Return meat to the slow cooker and allow to sit until some liquid has been absorbed, about 15 minutes. Serve over cooked rice.
