Spicy Pulled Pork

*2 3/4 lbs. boneless pork shoulder (or Boston butt)
*1 medium onion, diced
*1 28 oz. can crushed tomatoes
*1 14.5 oz. can whole tomatoes
*1 chipotle chile in adobo sauce
*1 tbsp adobo sauce
*1 tsp dried oregano
*2 dried bay leaves
*salt and pepper

In a 5-quart slow-cooker, combine onion, bay leaves, chile, adobo sauce, tomatoes and puree, 2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper. Add pork; toss to coat with sauce.

Cook on high setting til pork is pull-apart tender, 6 hours (do not uncover while cooking).

Transfer meat to a bowl; shred with forks, discarding any gristle. Return meat to pot; toss with sauce. To serve, discard bay leaves and garnish with tortillas and grated cheese.
