Pork Carnitas

I found this recipe at http://wearychef.com and it is amazing.  These carnitas are so flavorful that I've been craving them ever since I made them a few days ago.  These pork carnitas are a must try!


What you need:

3-4 lb Pork Roast
1 tsp. Garlic Powder
1 tsp. Onion Powder
1 tsp. Dried Oregano
1 tsp. Dried Cilantro
1 tsp. Cumin
2 tsp. Chili Powder
16 oz Jar of Green Salsa
1 Can of Beef Broth
1/2 Cup of Milk
12 Small Corn Tortillas


- Put the pork roast in a crockpot and cover it with all the seasonings.  Pour the green salsa and beef broth on top.  Cook on low for 6 hours or until the roast easily falls apart.
- When the roast is done, preheat the oven to 275 degrees.  Shred the roast and place on a baking sheet lined with foil.  
- Mix together 1/2 cup milk and 1/2 cup of the juice left in the crockpot and pour over the meat.  Cook 30 minutes for really soft and juicy pork or 45 minutes for more crisper meat.
- Heat up corn tortillas on the stove and dish meat into the tortilla.  Top with your desired toppings.  I liked cheese and guacamole.   
Enjoy!
