Nothing beats tender golden brown Carnitas right from the large disco. For those not familiar with Carnitas, it is pork braised in lard until tender and golden brown. Here is the way I like to make carnitas on my stove top. Cook time may vary depending on the texture you want to achieve. I do suggest not to cook until it falls apart in the pot. Carnitas should still keep its shape, but be fork tender.
INGREDIENTS
3 1/2 to 4 lbs Pork Shoulder
1 lb lard
2 tsp salt (or to your taste)
1 medium to large orange
1/3 cup juice of orange
4 cloves garlic
1 large bay leaf
8 oz Coca Cola (room temperature)
1/3 cup evaporated milk
**One Large Thick Bottomed Pot
TIPS
-Do not use a high heat (medium heat over long period of time works best)
-Be sure to watch your heat (in the video I walked away and the heat got a little too hot)
-Cook time may vary depending on how tender or crispy you prefer your Carnitas.
