This is a great recipe. I used leftover pork from carnitas in the slow cooker the day before and white onion instead of green onion because I didn't have any. I used honey bbq sauce. I used corn tortillas and they came out crispy on the outside with the pork mixture moist on the inside. Quick and easy!03/02/08
