They’re not only simple and affordable to make, but they’re sure to become a family favorite. Let’s jump into this easy, step-by-step recipe.
Prepare the Pork: Start with a 2-pound pork shoulder or pork loin—whatever you have on hand. Season it generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder for an extra layer of flavor.
Cook the Pork: Place the seasoned pork into a slow cooker. Pour in half a cup of chicken broth to keep it moist and juicy as it cooks.
Set the slow cooker on low heat and let it cook for 6-7 hours, or until the pork is tender and easy to pull apart with a fork.
Make the Honey Mustard Sauce: While the pork is cooking, let’s make the delicious honey mustard sauce. In a bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of honey, 1/4 cup of Dijon mustard, and 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar.
Stir until smooth and well blended.
Pull the Pork: Once the pork is done, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Place the shredded pork into a large bowl.

Coat with Sauce: Pour the honey mustard mixture over the shredded pork and toss until every piece is coated in the delightful sauce. This is where the magic happens!
Warm the Tortillas: As the pork absorbs the flavors of the sauce, warm your tortillas. You can use a skillet for this, or simply microwave them for a few seconds until pliable.
Assemble the Tacos: Lay the warm tortillas on a flat surface. Spoon a generous portion of the honey mustard pulled pork onto each tortilla.
Top with your choice of extras like shredded cabbage, thinly sliced red onions, or fresh cilantro for added zest.
Serve with Style: For a touch of extra flavor, serve your tacos with a lime wedge and a sprinkle of feta cheese. These small additions can elevate the taste and presentation of your tacos.
Enjoy with Family: Gather your loved ones around the dinner table and enjoy these tantalizing tacos. They’re sure to be a hit with everyone!
