Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless pork shoulder or chicken breast
  • 2 tbsp Smokehouse BBQ Rub
  • 12 small corn tortillas
  • 3 cups shredded red cabbage and carrot slaw
  • 1 cup Crema Fresca
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges
  • Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, coat the pork or chicken with Smokehouse BBQ Rub and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat your grill or stovetop griddle to medium high heat. Grill the meat, flipping occasionally until cooked through and slightly charred, approximately 10 minutes (for pork) or 8 minutes (for chicken). Allow it to rest for a few minutes before thinly slicing.
  3. Warm the corn tortillas on the grill for 20 30 seconds per side, just until they're pliable and slightly charred.
  4. Assemble your tacos: top each warmed tortilla with sliced meat, a generous portion of slaw, a dollop of Crema Fresca, avocado slices, and a squeeze of lime juice. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves.
  5. Serve immediately and enjoy the sizzling, smoky experience!

Chef’s Insight

For a fiery kick, add a pinch of Smokehouse BBQ Rub to the slaw and Crema Fresca.
