Hey everyone, it's me. Meat enthusiast and newfound lover of spice. Remember when I made that crockpot pork shoulder recipe a couple days ago? Well I ended up doubling the recipe and having A LOT of leftovers. So, instead of eating the exact same thing for six meals in a row, I decided to get creative.

“Since the meat is already prepared, these tacos are so quick to whip up!”

To all of my meat loving friends, if you made the crockpot pork shoulder recipe and want to try something new with your leftover scraps, check out these tacos—best served with a side of fresh avocado and citrus fruit!
