Carnitas
Ingredients:
- 2-3 lbs Pork Shoulder
- 1 Tbs. Cumin powder
- 3 Tbs. Chili Powder
- 1 Tbs. Oregano
- 2 tsp. smoked paprika
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 sprigs of marjoram
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 yellow onion
- Salt to taste
Instructions:
Cut pork shoulder into one inch cubes
Place in a large pot with the rest of the ingredients and fill with just enough water to cover the pork.
Simmer over low heat until water evaporates. Stir occasionally and let the fat from the pork slowly render. The pork should start to caramelize and crisp up in it's own fat that has begun to render.
Serve with whatever the hell you want. My favorites are guacamole, roasted peppers and onions, cabbage, and sweet potatoes. Get it.
