Description

Elevate your taco night with this effortlessly delicious coffee and chili-rubbed pulled pork. The robust flavors of coffee and chili infuse the pork, creating a rich and savory experience that's both comforting and exciting. This recipe is designed for ease, allowing you to enjoy your time while the pork becomes incredibly tender.

The pork practically cooks itself, whether you choose to use the oven or the stovetop. Imagine the tantalizing aroma filling your kitchen as the pork slowly transforms into a succulent, pull-apart masterpiece. Each strand of pork is coated in a flavorful rub that creates a beautiful crust during the cooking process, sealing in the juices and intensifying the taste.

The coffee notes add a subtle depth, complementing the chili's gentle heat, resulting in a balanced and unforgettable flavor profile. For a convenient set-it-and-forget-it option, this recipe easily adapts to a slow cooker. A quick sear of the pork (optional, but highly recommended for enhanced flavor) before it enters the slow cooker builds a foundation of caramelized goodness.

Add a cup of water and let the slow cooker work its magic for 6-8 hours on low heat, resulting in unbelievably tender and flavorful pulled pork. The versatility of this pulled pork extends beyond tacos. Serve it on crispy tostadas, piled high with fresh toppings.

Consider serving the pulled pork in warm tortillas, either flat or rolled, offering a satisfying bite. The possibilities are endless! Don't forget the essential toppings!

Fresh salsa adds a vibrant burst of freshness, while creamy avocado provides a smooth and luxurious texture. A dollop of sour cream introduces a tangy coolness, and a sprinkle of cheese adds a touch of richness. Customize your creation with your preferred toppings, experimenting with different combinations to discover your perfect taco or tostada.

Whether you're hosting a casual gathering or simply craving a flavorful and satisfying meal, this coffee and chili-rubbed pulled pork recipe is sure to be a winner.

Instructions

    1.
    Cut the pork butt into two inch cubes.
    2.
    Mix 1 Tbsp. chili powder, ground coffee, 1 tsp. garlic powder, 1 tsp. onion powder, paprika, cumin, cayenne, 1.5 tsp. salt and juice from half of a lime in a large bowl, and toss pork cubes in it.
    3.
    Heat a pot over medium heat with a tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the pork in batches, allowing them to brown for about 1 minute on each side. Flip the cubes over and set aside once browned. Add the pork back to the pot and water so that the pork is almost covered.
    4.
    Allow the pot to come to a boil, then reduce the heat so the water is just simmering and cover the pot. You can allow the meat to cook on the stovetop over low heat, or place the pot with the cover on in a 300 degree oven. Allow the pork to cook for about 3.5 hours, then remove the lid and cook for another 30 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and allow to cool, then shred the meat.
    5.
    While the meat is cooking, whisk together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, the flaxseed, coconut flour, almond flour, baking soda, eggs, tsp. garlic powder, tsp. onion powder, and tsp. salt. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and brush a little olive oil over it. Carefully spoon the batter out and spread it out with a spoon. Repeat until the sheet pan is full. Bake the tortillas at 375 degrees for 10-15 minutes, or until they are just browned.
    6.
    Spoon the shredded pork in the center of the tortillas. Top with salsa, sliced avocado, cilantro and cheese if you like!
