For an even deeper flavor, sear the pork shoulder on all sides in a hot skillet before placing it in the slow cooker. This will add a beautiful crust and enhance the savory notes. Adjust the amount of serrano peppers to control the level of spiciness. For a milder dish, remove the seeds and membranes from the peppers before adding them. This pork is fantastic served with warm tortillas, your favorite taco toppings, and a dollop of sour cream or Mexican crema.
