 This SO SO good and So So So easy!  And if you are a crockpot lover, like myself it is also so so easy!

• 1 (5-6 lb) boneless pork shoulder
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 onion, chopped
• 4 medium tomatoes
• 4 -6 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 2 -4 sprigs fresh oregano
• 2 whole cloves
• 2 bay leaves
• 2-3 tsp dried chipotle flakes or 1-2 dried chipotle peppers (depending on how hot you like it)
• ¾ cup water
• 1 tsp chicken or beef bouillon1 teaspoon salt1 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork and brown all sides.  (Don't skip this step, this is what is going to sear you meat and keep it moist!)
2. Let rest 10- 15 minutes while preparing other ingredients.
3. Chop tomatoes, garlic and oregano. Place pork in crock pot and add all ingredients on top of pork
4. Cook on low 6-9 hours.
