When I make spiced pulled pork, I always make a huge batch so I have it on hand for a few different delicious recipes.
his pulled pork taco recipe is one of my favorites. My family practically cheers when they hear it's making its way to the table for dinner.
How to Make Pulled Pork
You can find everything you need to know about making pulled pork in this recipe, including what it is, the best cut of pork for it, exactly how to cook it, making a brine, adding a rub, how to "pull" it apart, and so on.
The Ingredients
I love setting up a taco bar for taco night for friends and family because everyone can choose whatever they like. I just put out all of the ingredients and let them have at it.
The Pickled Tomato Salsa adds a tangy flavor, which is lovely with the subtly spicy pulled pork. The tacos would also be great with Roasted Tomato Salsa.
And of course you can always serve guacamole instead of avocado slices. Lemon Poblano Guacamole is my favorite.

Here's an idea, let's make the pulled pork and pickled tomatoes over the weekend, and then have the Pickled Tomato-Pulled Pork Tacos during the week. Taco night, can be any night you know.
I hope you love them!

Thank you, David! Pulled pork is worth the time it takes, which is mostly inactive. I always make a lot to have it around for various meals for a week or so. 🙂 ~Valentina
