Carnitas de CP I want to share my award-winning Carnitas recipe with you today. And I'm not kidding that it's award-winning. Paul, a firefighter somewhere in Tennessee wrote in that he won some sort of crockpot cooking competition he was having with his buddies with this particular recipeNICE
I hope you enjoy it <http://clicks.aweber.com/y/ct/?l=A.5xb1&m=3dhBAPsnf1PAkL_&b=D8Nso5w6gAXNLig KS1_wxw> Slow Cooker Carnitas serves 6 <http://clicks.aweber.com/y/ct/?l=A.5xb1&m=3dhBAPsnf1PAkL_&b=D8Nso5w6gAXNLig KS1_wxw> (click through to see photos are read review 2 pounds pork shoulder 1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice (about 1 large orange) 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (about 1 large lime) 7 cloves garlic (whole intact) 1/2 tablespoon kosher salt 1 tablespoon cumin 1/2 cup beef broth corn tortillas sour cream, salsa, sliced avocado (optional) The Directions Use a 6 quart slow cooker In a small bowl, combine the salt and cumin. Rub mixture all over the pork, then plop into the slow cooker. Add whole garlic cloves. Squeeze on the citrus, and pour the beef broth evenly over the top. Cook on low for 8-10 hours, or until the pork shreds quite easily with a fork. If your meat is still fully intact after 8 hours, remove and cut into chunks, then return to the crock and flip to high for about an hour or two. Shred meat fully and serve on warmed corn tortillas with desired toppings. The Verdict. This is so totally good. You'll love the citrusy flavor of the meat, and the slight smokiness from the cumin. If you don't eat pork, try using an inexpensive beef chuck roast instead of the pork shoulder. Also, you really could achieve the same thing with chicken thighs, if you would prefer. 2 pounds of the chicken isn't going to be enough in a 6-quart, though -- I'd up it to 3 to 4 pounds "A day without a friend is like a pot without a drop of honey." -Winnie the Pooh -Please support me in my journey to another opportunity of life at: https://www.gofundme.com/sugars-transplant-journey Bless you, Sugar Lopez _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
