Carnitas
2lb boneless pork with some fat, cut into 2" chunks
8 cups water
1/4 onion
2cloves of garlic
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon lard
1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice ( no seeds )
1/2 cup milk
***Place the pork, water, onion, garlic and salt in a large pot or Dutch
oven. Cook, covered, over medium heat for 1-11/2 hours or until the pork is
very tender. Drain the fat.
Melt the lard in a saucepan. As soon as it bubbles, add the orange juice and
the milk, then the pork. Cook, uncovered, over medium heat until the meat is
browned, 15-20 minutes ( the orange juice and milk will cook off, leaving
the pork brown). Drain the meat immediatly and place ina a colander to let
the excess grease run off.
Serve with hot corn tortillas and salsa, avocado or guacamole. To make the
tacos you can add chop onion, cilantro and some dropes of freshly squeesed
lime juice.
