In a bowl, combine the pork cubes with minced chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat the pork evenly. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes at room temperature, or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the marinated pork in a single layer (you may need to do this in batches to avoid overcrowding). Sear the pork for about 3-4 minutes per side until browned.

Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and let the pork simmer gently for about 25-30 minutes, or until tender and cooked through. Stir occasionally. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a splash of water or broth.

While the pork is cooking, warm the corn tortillas. You can do this by heating them in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side, or by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 30-60 seconds.

Once the pork is tender, shred it with two forks directly in the skillet, mixing it with the flavorful sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Assemble the tacos by filling the warm tortillas with the shredded chipotle lime pork. Top with sliced avocado, thinly sliced red onion, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Add a dollop of sour cream or crema if desired.
