Ingredients
- 2 pounds Pork shoulder (boneless)
- 1 tablespoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 12 Corn tortillas
- 1 cup Cabbage, thinly sliced
- 2 Lime, cut into wedges

Instructions
Trim any excess fat from the pork shoulder and cut it into 4 large chunks.
In a small bowl, mix together smoked paprika, ground cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Rub the spice mixture all over the pork pieces, ensuring they are well-coated.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the pork pieces on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side.
Transfer the seared pork into a slow cooker.
Pour the apple cider vinegar and chicken broth over the pork in the slow cooker.
Cover and cook on low for about 6 hours, or until the pork is tender and easily shredded with a fork.
Once cooked, remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred using two forks.
Return the shredded pork to the slow cooker to soak up any remaining juices.
Warm the corn tortillas in a skillet or microwave.
Assemble the tacos by placing the pulled pork in the center of each tortilla.
Top with sliced cabbage, a squeeze of lime, chopped cilantro, and sliced avocado.
Serve immediately, enjoying each bite of your sugar-free pulled pork tacos!
