Slow Cooked Puerto Rican Pork (Pernil)

One of my favorite things in the world…so easy to make, so tasty, and makes a TON. What’s better than pernil? OH, pernil in the CROCKPOT! Of course.

Check out the ingredients list. It would be tough to have it be any shorter. It literally takes 5 minutes to throw together – all the time to make this dish is totally hands off.

And even better? I’ve got some leftover in the freezer. Already dreaming of enchiladas…
