Slow Cooker Pasilla Pulled Pork Lettuce Wraps

This slow cooked pork is so easy to make with the help of HERDEZ roasted pasilla chile. It really requires no work, and I kinda felt like I was cheating. I added all the ingredients to my slow cooker, walked away, and shredded once cooked. Then I let my family build their own lettuce wraps with the succulent and flavorful pulled pork and their favorite toppings. Dinner doesn’t get any easier than that.
