Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/2 lbs boneless pork shoulder, cut into bite-size pieces
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees F.

  • Repeat with remaining pork cubes, salt and black pepper, adding more oil if necessary.
  • Drain drippings from pot.
  • Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the same pot over medium heat. Cook onion in hot oil until tender.
  • Stir in undrained chiles and garlic; cook for 2 minutes.
  • Return pork to pot. Add chicken broth.
  • Cover and put in oven to bake for 1 hour.
  • Serve pork in tortillas topped with Cheddar cheese, tomato and sour cream if desired.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. The carnitas were tender, but the flavor was a bit bland.

The carnitas were good, but I found the sauce to be a bit too sweet for my taste.

These carnitas were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add more liquid to the slow cooker next time.

These carnitas were fall-apart tender and packed with flavor! I especially loved the addition of green chiles, which gave them a nice kick. I served them with tacos, but they would also be great on burritos or nachos.
