I used this recipe from Sally’s Baking Addiction.  They are the perfect amount of sweet and warming spice. Plus, my kids had a blast cutting and decorating them!

I developed a taste for Indian food when I lived in the city. Since I can't get it up here, I had to learn to make my own. If you are a little afraid of Indian food or are curious about it, this is a good place to start.

The easiest carnitas you will ever make right in the crockpot, cooked low and slow for the most amazing fall-apart tender pork goodness!

Have you joined The Walking Dead fan club yet? The season premier is on Sunday night and they've been playing every single episode from start to finish on AMC for this premier. And even though I've already watched all the episodes, I'm still hooked.

There's just something about creepy zombies that leaves you in front of the tv. That and Norman Reedus, his poncho, and his bow and arrow. But I digress. Zombies or not, it's officially fall and the slow cooker is being put to very good use in these epic carnitas. After all, you can't go wrong when you let this baby cook in all its glory for 8 hours.

You can even prep everything the night before and put it in the slow cooker right before leaving for work. And when you get home, you'll have the most tender, most juicy pulled pork ever. Although I highly recommend finishing this under the broiler, letting these babies get nicely caramelized.

I should also mention that this recipe creates enough to feed an army so be prepared to have tacos, quesadillas and burritos all week long!

Slow Cooker Pork Carnitas

The easiest carnitas you will ever make in the crockpot, cooked low and slow for the most amazing fall-apart tender goodness!

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon chili powder

2 teaspoons ground cumin

2 teaspoons dried oregano

2 teaspoons salt, or more, to taste

1 teaspoon ground black pepper

4 pound pork shoulder, excess fat trimmed

4 cloves garlic, peeled

2 onions, quartered

2 oranges, juiced

2 limes, juiced

Directions:

1. In a small bowl, combine chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper. Season pork shoulder with spice mixture, rubbing in thoroughly on all sides.

2. Place garlic, onions, orange juice, lime juice and seasoned pork shoulder into a slow cooker. Cover and cook on low heat for 8 hours or high for 4-5 hours.

3. Remove pork shoulder from the slow cooker and shred the meat before returning to the pot with the juices; season with salt and pepper, to taste, if needed. Cover and keep warm for an additional 30 minutes.

4. Preheat oven to broil. Place carnitas onto a baking sheet and broil until crisp and crusted, about 3-4 minutes.

5. Serve immediately.
