Carnitas, AKA “little meats”, is a Mexican dish that originated in the state of Michoacán. Carnitas are made by braising or simmering pork lard until tender, then slightly pulled and crisped. The result is juicy, yet crispy. Carnitas are one of my favorite tacos of all time traditionally served on fresh corn tortillas with cilantro and onions.
Bonus Ranch Water recipe included in this video – Ranch water is a classic Texas cocktail. Making this in a Topo Chico bottle is a fun way to make this drink portable. It’s only 3 ingredients and has been cooling off Cowboys for years. Cheers, y’all!

Just made these tonight for dinner. Nearly everyone went back for seconds and thirds. Best carnitas I have ever had. Subbed Jumex juice for the Coke
I live in Colorado and Texas sucks.

A taco without cilantro and onion is wrong. Great recipe. I’m definitely doing this.
Instead of getting a pork butt,get some country style ribs. That way you dont have a lot of left over meat.
