Preparation

Step 1

Mix the chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Rub over meat and put in crock pot. Whisk together the jam, brown sugar, orange juice and garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the brown sugar is melted and the sauce is slightly thickened. Spoon the mixture over the pork, turning to coat. Add jalapenos and onions. Put lid on crock pot and cook for 8 hours.

After cooked use a fork to shred the pork and discard any fat. Put in tortillas with fixings.
