Shredded Pork Sandwiches

Here is a tasty and simple recipe for dinner when you don't want to put a lot of effort into making dinner, but you want something that tastes awesome. I made this last friday for dinner and it was so good. It is a crockpot recipe so I put it together in the morning before I left for work and when I got home, the house smelled really good. It made a lot so we've been eating it up all weekend, but it still tastes great.

Shredded Pork Sandwiches From Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook

3 pound boneless pork shoulder blade meat (I used a boneless pork loin we had in the freezer)
8 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp ground coriander
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp dried oregano, crushed
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1 cup beef broth
12 hamburger buns, split and toasted

Trim fat from meat. In a small bowl combine garlic, coriander, cumin, oregano, onion powder, black and cayenne peppers, and 1/2 tsp salt; rub into meat. Place meat in a 3-5 quart slow cooker; add beef broth. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 8-10 hours or on high-heat setting for 4-5 hours. Shred meat when done and serve on buns.
