Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 ½ pounds boneless pork chops

  • ½ cup chicken broth

  • 1 (18 ounce) bottle honey barbecue sauce, or to taste

  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained

  • 1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained

  • ½ cup salsa, or to taste

  • 12 (6 inch) flour tortillas, or as needed

  • ½ cup crumbled cotija cheese, or to taste

  • ½ cup shredded lettuce, or to taste

  • ½ cup diced tomatoes, or to taste

Directions

  1. Combine pork chops and broth in a slow cooker. Cook on High until meat can be easily shredded, about 4 hours.

  2. Transfer meat to a cutting board and shred when cool enough to handle. Return to the slow cooker and set to Low.

  3. Add barbecue sauce, black beans, and corn to the slow cooker. Stir until well combined. Cover and cook on Low until heated through, about 1 hour. Stir in 1/2 cup salsa. Taste and add more barbecue sauce or salsa if needed.

  4. Serve filling in tortillas. Top with cotija cheese, lettuce, and tomato.

Tips:

You can use a pork roast if desired, and Cheddar cheese in place of cotija.
