Preparation

Step 1

In a nonstick skillet, heat oil over med-high heat. Quickly brown the pork and transfer it to a slow cooker. Add onion and carrot to the skillet and cook about 5 minutes, or until soft and just starting to brown. Add garlic and cook 1 minute longer. Add beer and 1 cup of barbecue sauce and bring just to a boil. Remove from heat and pour over the pork. Cover and cook on high about 3 hours. The pork will be very tender and separate easily with a fork.

Wrap tortillas in foil and warm in the oven at a low temperature about 15 minutes. Serve pork in the warm tortillas garnished with cilantro. Pass chipotle puree and extra barbecue sauce in squeeze bottles, if desired.
