Carnitas!

Carnitas~ !

Slow cooked in a Crock Pot

Ingredients:

• Pork Shoulder / Butt (it's the same thing! :) - usually comes in a very large bulky piece of meat
• 2 cans of chicken broth
• 2 cans of beer
• one onion
• a handful of garlic cloves
• oregano
• basil
• sugar
• chile flakes
• mini can of fire roasted diced green chiles
• cumin
• salt & pepper

Start: 

1. Get that hunk of meat and put it into the crock pot.
2. Pour 2 cans of beer (the darker the better) and 2 cans of chicken broth. You might need to add some water to make sure the liquid covers the meat.
3. Cut up an onion and crush garlic cloves and spread the pieces everywhere.
4. Open the can of chiles and throw them into the crock pot.
5. Sprinkle the seasonings everywhere, on the meat, in the liquid and be generous.
6. Turn Crock Pot on low and wait for 7 or so hours until meat is tender and falling apart. 
7. Serve hot on your favorite Mexican dish - burritos, tacos, Carnitas plate with rice and beans...
