INGREDIENTS

4 pounds pork roast

1/2 teaspoon cumin and chili powder

red onion, sliced thin

1 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoon pepper

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

2 tablespoons olive oil

8 ounces beer and 8 ounces chicken broth

2 cups sliced green cabbage

3 tablespoons sweet chili sauce

1 lime juiced

a bunch of (4-inch) tortillas, for serving (I used white corn tonight)

shredded cheese, for topping

cilantro avocado cream

1 avocado, chopped

1 lime, juiced + zested

3 tablespoons sour cream or greek yogurt

3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

INSTRUCTIONS 

Rub the pork with a little olive oil,  then sprinkle pork with the salt, pepper, paprika, onion powder and garlic powder, cumin, chili powder. Pour your favorite beer  and chicken broth in the pot, around the sides, not rinsing off the spices, cover and cook for 5-6 hours on high. Check with meat thermometer if it's 165 you can slice it and serve like I did, or if you want it pulled into pieces let cook a little more. After 7 hours, remove the top and pull the pork apart with tongs or forks. I toss it well with the beer and then cover it and let it cook for another 15 minutes or so. Mix well to combine everything. Taste the pork and season it additionally if desired.

To make the slaw, add the cabbage to a large bowl. Toss it with the sweet chili sauce and the lime juice, adding in a pinch of salt. You can make this a few hours ahead of time and keep it in the fridge if desired.

To make the avocado cream, add the avocado, lime juice and zest, sour cream or yogurt and the cilantro to a food processor. Blend until pureed and creamy.

Assemble the tacos by adding some pork to each tortilla and covering it with a drizzle of the avocado cream. Add the slaw on top and crumble on a bit of cheese.
