Our green chile pork tacos recipe is our version of street tacos pork style! You do not need to wait for Tuesday to make these green chili pork tacos, especially since you probably already have everything you need to make them in your pantry.

How to Make Our Pot Green Chile Pork Tacos Recipe

Instant Pot Instructions

1. Place roast in Instant Pot.
2. Pour chicken broth into the Instant Pot.
3. In a mixing bowl, mix together chilies, taco seasoning, and cumin. Spoon green chile mixture over pork.
4. Put your lid on the pot and put the VALVE on sealing (not venting). Press the MANUAL (or PRESSURE COOK) button and set timer for 60 minutes (or 20-25 minutes per pound of your roast).
5. When timer is finished, let pressure do a NATURAL RELEASE (it will take at least 20 minutes – I prefer to let it sit in my Instant Pot on the “keep warm” setting for a couple of hours and it will literally fall apart).
6. Shred or slice roast (it should fall apart pretty easily) and serve on top of tortillas with your favorite toppings.

Slow Cooker Instructions

1. Spray slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray.
2. Place roast in the bottom of the slow cooker.
3. In a mixing bowl, mix together chilies, chicken broth, taco seasoning, and cumin. Spoon green chile mixture over pork.
4. Place lid on the slow cooker and cook on LOW heat for 8-10 hours.
5. When pork is done cooking, shred or slice roast (it should fall apart pretty easily) and serve on top of tortillas with your favorite toppings.

Recipe Notes

• Store the green chile pork in an airtight container for up to four days in the refrigerator.
• You can use this meat in burritos or enchiladas.
• If you have extra time for anything, let it be for some delicious homemade corn tortillas. I cannot tell you how awesome they are, it’s truly something you need to experience, if only once. You can find a great recipe for your own homemade corn tortillas from Gimme Some Oven. It is so good, and has great instructions.

Serving Suggestions

We recommend serving this recipe with our Mexican Street Corn Salad, Instant Pot Cilantro Lime Rice, and Slow Cooker Refried Beans. You can find more Mexican-inspired recipes here.
