Instructions to make Mike's EZ Pork Carnitas:
- Use 2 packets. This really is a great brand! It's avaliable at most any major supermarket.
- Pan sear your pork roast on all sides in a slight amount of oil.
- Add all of your vegetables and seasonings [except for your sides/garnishments] and simmer covered stove top [fat side up] for 3 hours. You'll know she's done when you can easily pull the bone from your roast. Or, shread roast easily with 2 forks.
- Strain all fluids from pork roast but retain them for a delicious broth later in the week.
- Shread pork and place in the oven at 425° for 30 minutes uncovered. Drizzle lightly with lard or oil.
- Serve pork hot with chilled garnishments. See my recipe for Mike's Fiesta Guacamole on this site if interested. ;0)

This Pork Carnitas recipe was slow cooked stove top style. I've been juggling the thought of getting me an Instapot (a pressure cooker with slow cook feature and more) for over a year now and like the Libra that I am, up to now, I am still undecided. Ironic that we actually had one here as a giveaway. Many find carnitas a little dry or flavorless.
