Pork Carnitas Mexican Style Dinner



Pork Carnitas is such a wonderful Mexican style meal. Perfect for a crowd, too! If you are interested in a guesstimate recipe I will list it below for a 1-2 lb piece of meat. All of my measurements are close. Feel free to add more or less of anything listed. 1 1/2 lbs of pork roast cut into 1-2 inch pieces 2 large onions - 1 to cook meat with, 1 to broil when meat is done 2 large oranges juiced and cut in quarters 1/4 cup orange juice if you have no oranges 3 TBS oil of your choice enough to coat all of the meat, oranges, and onions 2 tsp cumin 1 tsp cinnamon 2 tsp chili powder 2 bay leaves 2 garlic cloves or to taste salt & pepper to taste Mix thoroughly coating each piece of meat, onions and orange pieces Bake 3 hours or until fork-tender. Drain and transfer to a baking dish discarding orange pieces and cover with sliced onions. Broil for 3-4 minutes, stir and broil 3-4 minutes again. Repeat until everything is crispy. Use meat in tortilla skin or taco shell or even taco chips then add cheese and your favorite toppings. Enjoy!!
