Slow Cooker Tacos al Pastor Style

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Slow Cooker Tacos al Pastor Style.

1. Step 1

   Begin by placing the pineapple, quartered onion, chipotle peppers with adobo sauce, guajillo chiles, chile de arbol, halved garlic, and minced oregano into a food processor.

2. Step 2

   Blend these ingredients until you achieve a smooth consistency.

3. Step 3

   Next, transfer this vibrant mixture into a bowl and incorporate the orange juice, white vinegar, achiote powder, salt, ground cumin, lime zest, ground ancho chile powder, and black pepper.

4. Step 4

   Stir well to create a rich and flavorful sauce that will elevate your dish.

5. Step 5

   Now, take your cubed pork loin and nestle it into a slow cooker, generously pouring the sauce over the meat to ensure every piece is coated in that delicious blend.

6. Step 6

   Cover the slow cooker and let it work its magic on low heat for 7 to 9 hours, or until the pork becomes irresistibly tender.

7. Step 7

   About 35 to 40 minutes before the pork is ready, start warming your tortillas.

8. Step 8

   In a saucepan, heat oil over high heat and cook each tortilla individually, allowing them to develop lovely brown spots, which should take about 30 seconds to 1 minute per side.

9. Step 9

   Stack the cooked tortillas in pairs to keep them warm and ready for serving.

    Once the pork is perfectly cooked, shred it using two forks and mix it back into the sauce in the slow cooker for maximum flavor infusion.

    To assemble your tacos, use a slotted spoon to scoop the succulent shredded pork onto each tortilla, then top with a generous helping of chopped pineapple, fresh cilantro, and diced onion.
