6. 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano

Smoked Picnic Shoulder Roast Enchiladas
Ingredients
1. 2 cups smoked picnic shoulder roast (see above)
2. 1 tablespoon olive oil
3. 1 cup black beans
4. 1 can (15 oz) corn kernels
5. 2 cups shredded cheese

2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a pan over high heat. Add the pork and cook until the bottom is nicely browned - about 1 1/2 minutes. Do not turn, just make the bottom crispy (to keep the pulled pork as moist as possible), then remove the pulled pork into a bowl.
3. Add the corn, black beans, 1/2 cup enchilada sauce, and 1/2 cup cheese into the bowl and mix to combine.
4. Spread 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce on the bottom of the baking dish.
5. Place 1/2 packed cup of filling (from step 3) into a tortilla and roll up and place in the baking dish.
6. Pour over the remaining enchilada sauce, and bake for 10 minutes.
7. Remove from the oven and scatter the cheese and jalapenos on, then bake for another 10 to 15 minutes until the cheese is bubbling and golden.
8. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
