Slow Cooker Carnitas Pork Tacos

Carnitas pork tacos are all the rage right now, and for good reason! They are flavor filled and delicious…so good, that even our kiddos love them! These fabulous pork tacos are so easy to make too. You just gather the ingredients and let your slow cooker do all of the work while you go about your business! They cook much like my Slow Cooker Shredded Chicken, but have an amazing moist on the inside and crispy on the outside taste!
