Pork Carnitas
Pork Carnitas
"We have the World’s Best Carolina Pulled Pork but it was high time we made the BEST Pork Carnitas Recipe and this is it. A hint of citrus, juicy meat with those classic crispy bits! This is the perfect shredded pork for tacos, burritos or enchiladas. Roasting the meat slow and low helps the meat to absolutely fall apart and still maintain all of it's juicy, flavorful goodness! We love to add a little cilantro and lime to finish it off!"
