Slow Cooker Sweet and Spicy (customizable) Pineapple Salsa Pork – crazy good, flavorful filling for burritos, tacos, burrito bowls, salads, etc. In addition to weekly meals, I love making this for company because its SO good, easy and versatile! Have you tried my Slow Cooker Pineapple Salsa Chicken? Its one of my all time favorite recipes, so naturally, I wanted another way to devour the slightly tangy, sweet and spicy flavors so Slow Cooker Pineapple Salsa Pork was born. Beautiful day. Its crazy tender, moist, versatile and bursting with flavor. And don’t worry about the “spicy” part – that is completely customizable based on your preference. You start with just a little hot sauce and add more to taste at the end – or a lot to taste at the end if you are like me! Along with my love of the flavor profile, I am in love with just how easy this Slow Cooker Pineapple Salsa Pork is. Its one of those “dump and run” kind of meals that fills your entire home with the aroma of can’t-wait-unit-its-done yearnings. And its all made possible by cans! I love just how easy cans can make cooking or as more eloquently stated, “You’re more successful when you have the can on hand,” so I’m excited to have teamed up with Albertsons to celebrate National Can Month! The seal of a can guarantees freshness, flavor, nutrition and fantastic convenience – everywhere, every time. I love keeping my pantry well stocked with my favorite canned goods so I can always make flavorful and healthy dishes at a seconds notice. If you were to open my pantry, you would always find canned green chilies, pineapple, crushed tomatoes, black beans, kidney beans, corn, coconut milk etc. staring right back at you, waiting to deliver more vitamins and minerals to your everyday meals.
For this Pineapple Salsa Pork, I used three of my very favorite canned ingredients – diced green chilies, pineapple and black beans. You throw all of these ingredients into your slow cooker along with salsa, brown sugar, a cast of spices, hot sauce and your pork that has been marinating in soy sauce and Coke (marinade is optional but highly recommended). Let it cruise until the pork is fall apart tender, shred it, and let it drink up all the juices for 30 more minute or so. And then its eating time, the very best time! But your work isn’t done yet. While cans have made making this Pineapple Salsa Pork easy peasy, deciding just how to eat it is the hard part. When I have company over, I set up a bar of tortillas, Cilantro Lime Rice or Restaurant-Style Mexican Rice, cheese, lettuce, sour cream, avcoado crema or guacamole, salsa or salsa verde, tortilla chips, etc. so everyone can either make a burrito, a salad or a bowl. I personally love smothering rice with cheese, then adding my Pineapple Salsa Pork, Sour Cream and tortilla chips to make a bowl… But I also personally love making these Smothered Baked Pineapple Salsa Pork Burritos with Creamy Avocado Sauce…coming soon. Oh decisions, decisions!
But one thing is guaranteed, you will love this versatile Slow Cooker Pineapple Salsa Pork and Albertsons is waiting with shelves of cans to make your every day life easier – and more delicious!
