Carnitas

By Susan52

Ingredients

• 3 pound pork butt (cut into 2 inch cubes)
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon oregano
• 1 cup of orange juice
• 3 cups of water

Preparation

Step 1

Place everything in a large pot, bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2 hours.

Increase the heat to medium-high and boil uncovered until the liquid has evaporated and the fat has rendered, about 45 minutes, stirring a few times to make sure that the pork turns golden brown and crispy on all sides.

Shred or cut the pork to the desire sized pieces.

Note: Can be used as a filling in burritos.
