Slow Cooked Pork Burrittos

I thought this pork was very delicious and it doesn't have to be used for burritos. It has a mexican-food taste  to it and can be shredded or cut for any of your recipes. Here's what I used for my burritos.

1 boneless pork roast 3 lbs
1/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 envelope reduced-sodium taco seasoning
1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 can (16 oz) refried beans
14 flour tortillas, 8 inch

Optional toppings: shredded lettuce, tomatoes, guacamole, sour cream, cheese, etc

1. Cut roast in half; place in slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine the broth, taco seasoning, parsley, garlic, pepper and salt. Pour over roast. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or until meat is very tender.

2. Remove pork from crock pot and shred with two forks. Spoon beans and pork onto tortillas and top with your favorite toppings.

Serves 14 (1 burrito each). Prep time: 20 minutes. Ready in 8 hours.
