Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Boneless pork shoulder
- 1 cup Cherry jam
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 2 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp Ground ginger
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 3 cups Coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
- 2 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp Honey
- 1 tbsp Lime juice
- 6 pieces Flour tortillas
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together cherry jam, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, ground ginger, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the pork shoulder in a slow cooker and pour the marinade over the top, ensuring the pork is fully coated.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours, until the pork is tender and easily shredded.
While the pork is cooking, prepare the coleslaw. In a large mixing bowl, combine coleslaw mix, mayonnaise, honey, and lime juice. Toss until evenly coated and set aside in the refrigerator to chill.
Once the pork is done, use two forks to shred the meat directly in the slow cooker, mixing it well with the sauce.
Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
To assemble the wraps, place a generous amount of shredded pork in the center of each tortilla, top with coleslaw, and garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
Fold the edges of the tortilla over the filling and roll tightly to form a wrap.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Cherry Shredded Pork Wraps!
