It feels like a lifetime since Martin and I were in the UK, but one memory that is still strong is our meal at Mexican restaurant, wahaca, we loved their Pork Pibil tacos so much we ordered a second round of them.

This pulled pork slow cooker recipe is amazing, let the pork cook all day and by night serve it up with tacos, burritos or in a salad and you have a moorish meal. You will have a lot of pork with this dish so why not host a mexican dinner party.
