My husband's favorite Mexican food dish!
Category: Main Dish
Cuisine: Mexican
1 3-4 lbs. Pork Shoulder cut into large pieces
6 cups Chicken Broth
1/2 cup Coca Cola
1 medium white onion chopped
1/4 cup Vegetable oil
3 tbsp Kosher Salt (or to taste)
3 tbsp Lime Juice
1 clove Garlic crushed
1 tbsp Chili powder
1/2 tsp Dried oregano
1/2 tsp Ground cumin
2 Avocados Sliced
1 bunch Fresh Cilantro chopped
1 cup Pico De Gallo
8-10 Corn Tortillas
Goat Cheese crumbled
My whole family loved this! The only thing I would do differently is to add less salt. I had to use bouillon in place of 4 cups of chicken broth. I think the bouillon added too much. So use broth, or cut back drastically on the salt. There was so much salt, I felt like I was missing out on all the other flavors a little. I served with mozzarella cheese, cilantro and onion. Delicious!
LChickieThis Carnitas recipe is a keeper. I followed the recipe exactly, it was so moist and tender. The best part is how it became caramelized during the last half hour. Definitely will make again!
JJudkins1958I loved the recipe, but was the coke to drink, I didn't see it in the recipe at all.
RevKenelmDelicious!! I lightly salted the pork roast with regular table salt but otherwise left recipe the same. My daughter raved about them all through dinner. Served with homemade spanish rice and homemade corn tortillas. Yummy!!!
pkaufmanHoly salt. This recipe would be just fine with no salt added. Otherwise it has tasty ingredients.
