1 Tbsp. vegetable oil

1 Tbsp. cumin
1/2 Tbsp. coarse salt

Poke 3-5 holes in pork with sharp knife; stuff with half the crushed garlic.  Warm oil in large skillet over medium-high heat.  Add pork and brown on all sides, 6-8 minutes.

Combine remaining ingredients in blender and blend 3-5 seconds until evenly combined.  Place pork in slow cooker, pour liquid mixture over pork and let marinate about 10 minutes on each side.

Turn slow cooker on low; set timer for 8 hours.  After 8 hours, remove pork and shred using 2 forks on large cutting board.  Remove all liquid from slow cooker except 1 cup and add pork back to pot.  Let cook about 15-30 minutes.

Serve shredded pork in lettuce wraps or in corn tortillas.  Top with pick de gallo, chopped cilantro and avocado if desired.
