Crockpot Pork Carnitas

UM yum!!!  This was so good and super easy!!!
Pork - 1 Red
2 Corn Tortillas - 1 Yellow
Cheese - 1 Blue
Veggies on top - 1 Green

Ingredients
4 pound boneless pork roast
1 T. chili powder
1 T. cumin
1 T. oregano
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. garlic powder
2 onions, sliced
2 oranges
2 limes
Corn tortillas
Taco Toppings (Lettuce, cheese, pico de gallo, sour cream, etc.)

Place pork roast in crockpot.

Sprinkle spices on top.  Layer onions on roast.

Squeeze juice from the oranges and limes over meat and onions, then put the
entire fruit in the crockpot as well.

Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.  Remove pork roast from crockpot and shred, reserving juices in crockpot.  Discard the oranges and limes.   Return the shredded pork to the crockpot and allow it to sit in the juices for 15-30 minutes.

Preheat oven to broil. Remove pork from crockpot with a slotted spoon and spread out evenly on a cookie sheet.   Broil until the edges of the meat start to look crispy, approximately 5 minutes.

Serve inside corn tortillas with favorite taco toppings.
