Impossibly Easy Sweet Pulled Pork
This has become a staple in our home. We absolutely love this pork. There is a restaurant chain here in utah called costa vida and this is as close as we have come to replicating the sweet pork they make there for the burritos/salads/etc.
Steps
Heat the oil in a skillet over high heat--we prefer to use cast-iron for searing , so if you have one , use it.
Rub the salt and pepper all over the roast.
Sear the roast in the skillet for 1-2 min per side.
Toss the seared roast in your crock-pot.
Sprinkle the brown sugar over the roast and then dump the salsa over the top of that.
Cook on low for 10-12 hours.
You will know when the roast is done , because it will shred easily with a couple of forks.
Shred the pork right there in your crockpot and mix it all up with the drippings and other liquids.
Serve as a filling for tacos / burritos or on top of salads.
