Directions
- In a 2 quart saucepan over medium heat, add the Ancho and Guajillo dried chiles, vinegar, broth, sugar, salt, and a very small amount of water if desired. Let cook until the chile skin is soft.
- Then, place the mixture in a blender, add ¼ cup chopped onion and garlic and blend on High for 1 to 2 minutes or until mixture has a thick and smooth consistency. Place the pork in slow cooker and pour the chile sauce over the pork. Add the bay leaves to the slow cooker.
- Cook on LOW for about 6 to 7 hours or until the pork is tender and thoroughly cooked. Remove the bay leaves. Transfer the pork to a medium-size bowl. Shred the meat by using two forks and pulling them away from each other.
- In a small bowl, mix the sour cream and milk, stirring constantly for 1 minute. Set aside. Place the tortillas on a serving dish. Spoon the pork, cilantro, and finely chopped onion over the tortillas. Drizzle with the sour cream sauce. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
