If you're on a diet, this isn't for you. It's a "guilty pleasure" to be sure.
You will need:
3-5 lbs of pork shoulder. Do not remove fat.
1 small can of your favorite Salsa
Garlic powder, Cumin, Mexican oregano and salt to your liking.
Cook in a crock pot till tender (6-10hrs)
Refrigerate all in a container overnight.
The next day, remove the fat layer from the container and save.
Shred the meat onto a large flat sheet pan and spread the reserved fat evenly over the top of the meat. Broil about 10 minutes till the meat looks somewhat crispy. Turn the meat with a large spatula, and char for another 10 minutes, till slightly crispy.
The remaining fat free juices from the crock pot can be used for many Mexican sauces.
This will be your best Carnitas ever for Taco's, Enchilada's, Burrito's or whatever!
Enjoy!
