[@janetjenkins3586]

I just made this!!! I’m so excited for my family to try it for dinner tonight. It’s smells amazing and the meat has the best flavor EVER. Followed the simple instructions but used Coke Zero because we are keto. It still caramelized the meat beautifully. YUM!

[@CookingConClaudia]

Yummm!!! Anything carnitas 🤤 12 tacos pa llevar por favor 🙋🏽‍♀️

[@MR-zj1gm]

These are so delicious!!! I have been experimenting unsuccessfully for the past 20 😵‍💫 years to get the flavor of beans I had growing up and you have given me the formula! I am so jazzed 🤗 Thank you thank you 🌻

[@layla81781]

This looks amazing, great job👏

[@netluv7696]

Looks amazing…..What happened to the chicharron that you cut away?…you were going to cook it separately. Bet that’s amazing too!

[@jennperez9290]

Same I was waiting for that 👎🏼

[@annalisastrickland8044]

Question: If you want to freeze half of the carnitas, would you vacuum seal it with some of the cooking liquid included, to help limit any freezer taste?

[@kaelaruiz5676]

Will definitely be making these for my friends soon!! ❤

[@omarzahraman9010]

So delicious 😍

[@moniquea5124]

Looks absolutely delicious!

[@GIGnome]

So mine are about done but I cut my pork into smaller pieces. It's been one hour of simmering and they seem to be done. They are dark golden and the piece I took out tasted delicious.

[@jg6898]

Tried your recipes and love them all. Do you have recipe for refied beans and mexican rice?

[@veronicajaramillo2341]

[@calob6013]

[@littleblizzard7591]

Do you have a favorite brand of corn tortillas? Mine always crack!

[@bigfly44]

This recipe looks amazing but is there enough salt on them?? Thanks.

[@user-dg1qc1rk2b]

how much salt did u dissolve in the water?

[@Alicia-de4hj]

this looks so good i need to buy the ingredients and make it asap 😳

[@BigAlsKitchen313]

Do you cover the carnitas while simmering?

[@AdriannaJaber]

Did you cover it?

[@AdriannaJaber]

Do you cover it while you simmer?

[@chrisbrouns3593]

Its going on the stove right now. do I cover the pot while it simmers?

[@marialuna2811]

what happened to the cueritos? how did you cook them

[@tiffinyevelyn9282]

Do you need to cover while it is simmering?

[@lindafields3262]

I am definitely going to try this recipe. What did you do with the trimmed fat???

[@taylorondich8930]

Could you use a crockpot?

[@marthareyes8891]

Is there way to do this in an instant pot?

[@raychellerodriguez5062]

What did you do with the pork belly fat pieces you cut up? When do you add that for the pot?

[@Tanya-mh2hn]

i was wondering that too!

[@lifeseyephotoisme3326]

How do you warm your corn tortillas?

[@spiderqueen213]

Do I have to use lard or can I use canola oil?

[@michaelpung4121]

Lard of you want it to taste it's best. Lard is rendered pork fat anyway.

[@monaelsea4682]

So you add it all back to the lard ?

[@samoroscoii9689]

Do you cover while simmering? Or uncovered?

[@GIGnome]

What size pot?

[@miikewazowlski]

Looks good! Hard to hear at some points though.

[@TheCannaBBQ]

I’m so glad I found this. I’m gonna make it today. I’ll tag you 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🔥🔥🔥

[@freddsters]

Dude! Thanks!! Can’t wait to see 🙌🏼🙏🏼

[@dankyLo3]

Do you cook uncovered the whole time?

[@francesrivera4938]

I can’t find lard at my store. Can I use oil?

[@izam1600]

What size is your Dutch oven

[@kristennavarro1768]

Can you cook in the crockpot?

[@abigailcalderon6626]

Just made this but the meat did not get brown and caramelized like yours 😢😢not sure what I did wrong .

[@marydiaz5809]

😍

[@luisa.arellano1034]

What type of lard did you use? And how much? Please and thankyou

[@necessaryevil2011]

2lbs but not sure what brand.

[@raidergo6150]

This is a bit different than your Tik-Tok version. In Tik-Tok, you did definitely smaller chunks and what did you do with the fat ie, lard you cut off You also added the water later then you did in Tik-Tok. I really would like to know which recipe to follow

[@christinaquiroz661]

Wait did he put the Coke in the pot where he added the lard? Confused help

[@katdaddy9175]

Yeah you can water, and coke in lard. Just not in oil.

[@alexandrarendon5055]

This looks delicious and made my mouth water 💦

[@geneviecardenas7168]

I just bought the ingredients to make this and am so intimidated about cutting up the pork and removing the fatty parts. Any tips?

[@Steak514]

If you buy pork butt most the fat is on the back. So just use a sharp knife and slice it right off. You don't gotta dig around cutting fat off from everything, really just the back. It's one line of fat. And like always, never slice towards your hand.

[@geneviecardenas7168]

@@Steak514 I appreciate your reply!

[@evanajar673]

Howw much salt to water

[@freddsters]

1 tbsp salt, 1/2 cup water

[@nandkuj]

Is the amount of fat used absolutely necessary or can it be reduced?

[@junkmail420]

Preparing it with this method, yes that amt of fat is necessary. Because the fat is what's cooking the pork, you need it to be fully submerged in the fat. This is the most traditional way to prepare this dish. There are however other methods of cooking it (like baking or using a slow cooker) that require no additional fat to be used. If using any of these other methods the way you achieve the crispy exterior after cooking it all the way through is to spread the pork chunks on a baking sheet and putting them under an oven broiler for a few minutes.

[@PhilipLemoine]

Bruhhh

[@christinaquiroz661]

Can you make this in a crackpot????

[@michaelpung4121]

Not this style

[@rachelmullins6594]

What are those "salsas"??? They look good but Indont know what they are. Specifically, the yellow one.

[@OfficialVickieLube]

I forgot to cut the fat off 😩🤦🏻‍♀️

[@airamdiaz7191]

What happened to the fat you left for the end? How was it cooked??

[@awaitts1284]

looks fuckingggg fireeeeeee

[@alfredaguilat4996]

Be sure to look out for the whole cloves, bay leaves and pepper corns, not fun to bite down into when eating. Made this and the flavor is fine but not authentic.

[@eddiegarcia9918]

Food porn !
