Carnitas (Authentic)

Directions

1. 1
   Cut pork meat into chunks and discard the big pieces of fat. (I leave some fat as it adds flavor).
2. 2
   Add pork chunks, broth, garlic*, comino*, onion* and cilantro* to a dutch oven. If necessary, add water so that the meat is covered.
3. 3
   Bring to boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for about 3 -4 hours or until meat is very soft and pulls apart easily. (Be careful not to shred meat, needs to stay in chunks).
4. 4
   Remove the meat carefully from pot and place in a roasting pan. Discard onion and broth. Break the meat apart into smaller chunks (don't shred, it needs to stay in chunks).
5. 5
   Bake in the oven at 450°F for about 20 minutes or until the meat is brown and crispy.
6. 6
   Heat (or make homemade) corn tortillas, serve with desired toppings.
7. 7
   (You may have to adjust garlic, comino, onion and cilantro to your liking, everyone's taste is different. You can add salt and pepper if you like too, I use Nature's seasonings, personal preference).
