Here in south texas, we love carnitas. There so good and i just have to share this mexican dish with you all. These are made different ways, in a disco, or bbq pit. I made them in the oven, hope you can try them soon.

I concocted my carnita recipe from a few other recipes. All ingredients can be adjusted to your taste. I usually put it in crockpot but I have been known to put in on the grill as well. Some recipes call for added fat but I feel the pork produces enough on it's own it's not needed.

This is way to make traditional carnitas there are many different ways to do it but this is my favorite please try it and hope you like it

I got this recipe from my friend, Stephanie Fleck. You would never know there’s cinnamon in it unless you were told, but it adds a wonderful flavor! I make a double batch and freeze the leftovers for a quick and easy taco meal.

My family loves carnitas. I love street tacos. Here they are. Simple. Clean. Mexican food.

simple to make fix the tacos the way you would like them

There are other recipes for carnitas, for example slow cooked in chicken broth. I found that the only way to get that authentic Mexican flavor is to use the manteca "lard". Also DO NOT use American style Coca-Cola, it doesn't have the raw sugar the Mexican Coca-Cola has.

Serve in Tacos, Burritos, or in a salad : )

This is the best pork Carnitas I have ever made! It's crunchy and delicious! 😋

🌮Homemade, 🇲🇽 Mexican style, 🥘slow cooker tacos

Somewhat labor intensive, these authentic style Carnitas are SO worth the prep and slow-cook time! I always do the slow-cook of the pork the day before. Day 2 is when I broil/char the pork to serve with my homemade refried beans and warm flour tortillas.Melt-in-your-mouth delicious, and leftovers freeze and reheat very well; so if you're a small household, don't hesitate to make this: cook once, eat 4+ times.
