https://www.closetcooking.com/crispy-carnitas/ Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.

Left on broil for a little longer to get crispy.

Made this for dinner tonight and it was so good even with out the oranges, which I was out of. I can only imagine how good it will be next time I make it, with the orange juice. Thank you Kevin. This was the best pork filling I've ever made for Chimichangas!.

Deboned and chunked meat, then seared the bones with the meat in a cast iron skillet. Added to a large casserole, added a large sliced onion and proceeded as directed on recipe. Used Mexican oregano instead of regular. Absolutely delicious! Served with homemade guac, Pico De Gallo, fresh lime, sour cream. Will definitely make again! Will try with chicken thighs

First remove the fat from the juices and then reduce the juices to 1 cup. Place the baking sheet on the top shelf or the one below it in the oven.

Also, how far from the broiler did you place your pan? Thanks!

These are the best recipes on the internet that I've found. I've made several of your recipes and every single one of them is fantastic! I did the slow cooker version for this and it was excellent. Keep those recipes coming — I'm a huge fan!!!

I recently made another, very similar carnitas recipe, but was wanting to use the slow cooker and didn't know how to convert it. I made your recipe today for Cinco de Mayo and was able to start it in the AM before going to church and then finishing it up when we arrived home. It was SO good and we made homemade Pico de Gallo and Avocado Salsa to go with it. Delicious!
