GREEK PITAS WITH PULLED PORK
Both picky and adventurous eaters will go for this Mediterranean spin on pulled pork. Serve the meat wrapped in soft, whole-wheat pita bread topped with chopped fresh veggies, tangy feta cheese, and our creamy, herb-infused Tzatziki Sauce. If your people are picky, they'll still love the pulled pork just wrapped by itself in a warm pita.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, stir together the oregano, cumin, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, and garlic.
- Pat the pork shoulder dry with paper towels. If making in the Instant Pot, cut the pork into four equal pieces. Rub the seasoning mixture on all sides of the pork. (Freezing instructions begin here.)
- Place the pork, onion, and broth in the slow cooker or the Instant Pot. Slow Cooker Instructions: Cover and cook on Low for 7 to 9 hours or on High for 4 to 5 hours.
- Instant Pot Instructions: Lock and seal the lid. Cook at high pressure for 45 minutes. Allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then quick release the remaining pressure.
- Transfer the pork and onion to a cutting board and discard any liquid remaining in the cooker. Shred the meat, then return the meat and the onion to the cooker to keep them warm.
- Serve some shredded pork wrapped in a warm pita, topped with our Easy Tzatziki Sauce and your favorite Greek toppings.
- Slow Cooker Instructions: Thaw meal completely using one of these safe methods. Follow Steps 3 through 5.
- Instant Pot Instructions: Set the Instant Pot to "Sauté." Transfer the frozen meal to the pot and cook for 5 minutes to release some liquid. Press "Cancel." Follow Step 3b, but cook for 45 to 50 minutes. (The frozen meat will cook in about the same amount of time as fresh.) Follow Steps 4 and 5.
