These Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Tacos have juicy pulled pork piled in a soft tortilla, Or even a crispy Taco, whichever you’d prefer, I’ll do both! These are the perfect idea for feeding a crowd, and everything can be made ahead of time!

BBQ Pulled Pork Taco’s
Once you have your Shredded Pork, crunchy slaw and irresistible BBQ Sauce, it is really just a matter of building your taco! I like to use corn tortillas, but use flour if that is what you prefer! I like to crisp up my tortillas a little bit by spraying them with oil and warming them in a frying pan. This makes them slightly crispy and just improves the flavor so much.This recipe will serve 8, or 4 and leave enough for the next day!!
