• Trim and remove most of the fat from the pork butt. Slice and then dice the trimmed meat and mix with half the puree. Place in the fridge and let sit for 24 hours.
• Before cooking the pork, rub the puree into the meat, adding more if necessary. Add to a skillet and cook over medium heat until the meat is cooked through and browned, 6 to 10 minutes.
• On a heated griddle, warm two tortillas and place them together one on top of the other, fill with meat. Garnish with a sprinkle of cilantro and serve.

Steps:

• In a large sauté pan over medium high heat, heat the olive oil, add garlic and onion and cook until softened. Remove from heat and stir in the crab, shrimp meat and half of the shredded cheese.
• Divide the seafood mixture onto the 6 flour tortillas, then roll up. Place seam side down into baking dish.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, add pork, quartered onion, smashed garlic, salt, thyme and 6 cups of water, heat on medium-high and bring to a boil. Skim any foam that rises to the surface.
• Reduce heat to medium low and partially cover. Simmer until pork is tender, 60-90 minutes.
• Drain, setting aside one cup of the liquid. Using a potato masher, smash the pork until it breaks apart.
• Heat oven to 400°F Lay tortillas out on two baking sheets. Brush them lightly with canola oil on on both sides and lightly salt. Top with upside-down cooling racks to keep them flat and bake for about 10-15 minutes, until lightly browned. You will want to swap the position of the baking sheets half-way through. Definitely keep an eye on the tortillas since they can easily go from golden brown to yucky brown fairly quickly. Set aside and allow to cool.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet (I like cast iron for this). Add pork, diced onion and oregano and cook until browned with crisp edges, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and continue to cook until it becomes fragrant, less than a minute.
• Add tomatoes, chipotle powder, reserved liquid and bay leaves. Stir in and continue to cook until nearly all of the liquid has evaporated.
• Top each tortilla with 1/2 cup lettuce and 1/8 of the pork mixture. Optional toppings are light sour cream, diced fresh tomatoes and cilantro.

• Add pureed mixture to the pork mixture in pan and continue to simmer for 1 hour.
• Add crumbs to thicken broth and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Serve hot.

Steps:
