Pork for Burritos - Succulent Spicy Carnitas Omac
Ready In: 4 hrs 10 mins
Serves: 9-10
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon ground dried ancho chile powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1⁄2-1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons dried chipotle powder
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt (if using regular salt, use less)
- 3 -4 lbs boneless pork shoulder
Directions
- Preheat oven to 275. Mix together spices and salt in a small bowl. Take pork out of its netting and rub the spice mixture all over, getting it into the nooks and crannies.
- Place pork in a Dutch oven, cover and bake in the oven for 3-1/2 to 4 hours, until pork falls apart with the touch of a fork. That's it. The easiest recipe you can imagine. Shred the meat and serve it on a platter along with the suggested accompaniments.
- Note: If you'd like to crisp up either medium-sized chunks or fully-shredded meat, saute in a bit of the pork fat or canola oil.
