Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 1/4 pounds pork shoulder, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
3 cloves garlic, crushed and peeled
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt

Steps:

  • Combine pork, garlic and salt in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet. Add 2 cups water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, turning occasionally, until water has evaporated, about 1 hour; pork will begin to brown in its own fat. (If using leaner part of shoulder, add 1 to 2 tablespoons safflower oil.) Increase heat to medium and cook pork on all sides, turning and scraping up crisp bits with a spatula, until browned and tender, about 15 minutes. Coarsely shred with two forks.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The carnitas were dry and tough, and they didn't have much flavor. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I've tried many carnitas recipes over the years, and this one is by far the best. The meat is so tender and flavorful, and the sauce is perfect. I love that I can make this recipe in my slow cooker, so I can just set it and forget it.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. The carnitas are always moist and juicy, and the flavor is amazing. I love that I can make them in the slow cooker, so I can just set it and forget it.

These carnitas were fall-apart tender and flavorful! I made them for enchiladas rojas and they were a hit. The meat was perfectly seasoned and had a nice crispy exterior. I will definitely be making this recipe again.
