Recipe from almost 3 years ago 😳 • CARNITAS TACOS WITH GR... got to love the improvement 😊🙏🏽♥️
Don’t want to use lard? No problem make them on the instant pot • HOW TO MAKE THE BEST I...
Tip ‼️⚠️ if you want even crispier carnitas, set them on a hot griddle after removing from them from the lard! Just leave them for 30 secs on each side
I M P O R T A N T ⚠️
The combination of liquid is a little weird but believe me trust the process!!! The evaporated milk is going to tenderize the meat and the coke is going to give it that glazed brown color is just magic when everything combines 😅 that’s what makes carnitas, carnitas!!!!

4 lbs pork shoulder/butt
1 lb lard
12 oz Mexican coke
1 cup evaporated milk

Happy Monday my beautiful family! Enjoy another easy and delicious recipe this is the same recipe I did almost 3 years ago 🥹 I just did some slightly changes to make it even better! Hope you enjoy it now tell me how do you like to eat CARNITAS???? 😅

[@donavanjohnson409]

Good evening

[@monicasantos3032]

I love my carnitas con buche, on top of tacos dorados, with pico de galo and salsa 😋😋😋

@@donavanjohnson409 good evening my friend!!!

[@rathafarmer1798]

Love you

[@BeforeMoviesSucked]

Pork simmered in lard for 2 hours is the reason that Mexican culture is so much more vibrant and joyous than up here in Canada! ;) Looks amazing, Claudia. God bless!

[@sherrywilliams409]

@Before Movies Sucked I agree with you wholeheartedly. This recipe set me on fire to make this. My only setback is trying to find the same lard she’s using. It’s looks kinda brown even in the container so I’m thinking it’s seasoned maybe

[@zephyrozz3910]

@@sherrywilliams409 Sherry, the lard she is using is basically leftover lard from previous "Carnitas" that's been strained and separated.

[@sherrywilliams409]

@@zephyrozz3910 thank you for the reply. I wondered if that was the reason it had a color to it.

[@alondra3243]

Its also the reason why im so fattt 😭😭😭try convincing me to not eat carnitas and eat a prep meal instead

[@mylescripps6566]

I couldn’t find any lard from my local grocery store . So I’m using bacon grease and a stick of butter . I’m hoping they turn out good

[@a3herron]

Claudia is such an inspiring woman; very successful and a great example for others around her ❤❤❤❤

[@bessyvillanueva2979]

Made these for a birthday party. All my guests enjoyed the yummy tacos. I received so many compliments. It was delicious! Thank you for sharing.

[@reyrey7868]

She always dresses so cute and manages to always stay so clean during the cooking process it amazes me lol 😂 The amount of times I’ve had splash back from oil or any type of sauce is ridiculous . 😭☠️

[@jennyd1111]

It's a superpower, I swear 😅 I always get stuff on my clothes 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@joemeyer7718]

Hi, I just had to post how much I enjoy watching you cook or better still teaching us how to cook. You always have a smile and explain in simple terms how to do it, but the love in your voice and face shows how much you enjoy what you. Thank you and bless you and your family

[@TdM1019]

I made these tonight and lemme tell you they were the best carnitas I’ve ever had 🤤❤

[@angelachavez8288]

Using the evaporated milk too?!

[@TdM1019]

@@angelachavez8288Yes!

[@sarahs7253]

And pouring water into hot oil?

[@FrogKingGreat]

Just made this, awesome tacos with the salsa. I twisted it up a bit, added couple sticks of cinnamon, added smoked paprika with seasoning, added a lime with the orange. Amazing stuff

[@annmarmolejo5310]

Love this girl cuz of her I know how to cook 😭 Sooo many ppl love my dishes

[@taylornestlerode3693]

I just made these tonight and they were the BEST carnitas I have ever had. Better than any restaurant dish I've tried (and I live in Southern California, so that says alot!). Thanks for sharing!

[@ladyloops3204]

That’s the thing , for this you have to go to a street carnita / chicharrón vendor , definitely not a restaurant here in LA

[@imejias01]

I made this following your instructions … they were perfect … so delicious!! Thank you.

[@paulfrederiksen5411]

Claudia, I just made your recipe for these carnitas. OMG! I had my doubts about the evaporated milk...and I did substitute Mexican Coke for Real Sugar Pepsi, but it works! Everything just comes together beautifully! The spices, garlic, onion, and orange juice w/ peel made for a great "Taco Tuesday" tonight! Thank you so much for the great recipes! Time for another Margarita! Cheers my Luv!

[@beanniegirl7686]

[@clyneshacobb5012]

I followed your EXACT recipe and the final result was a hit !! Two days later, the meat is still super tender! Thank you!!

Watched quit a few videos and finally made one. I am blown away how easy and delicious this is. I’ll be making more recipes and ordering the cook book.

[@Startwithwhatchugot]

Honey, you're a blessing! I've been looking for an authentic recipe All day. You had me w/the Mexican Coke 🔥! Subscriber after 1 video 🥰🤗.

[@kayhenry6293]

That looks sooo good! I bet they would also be good with queso fresco and/or crema on top.

[@patriciaromo5262]

Claudia, you are truly amazing and I am amazed that you do not use a spatula to turn your chile for the salsa in this video. Somehow in our Mexican culture , this technique (using our hands and not feeling the heat ) has been passed down from generation to generation. Blessings for the New Year and looking forward to all your new videos.

[@theresaflores530]

Claudia you are an inspiration to everyone! Thank you for sharing your recipes and your life with us! Congratulations on your cook book!🎉

[@jasoncostanza5580]

WOW!! what a flavor profile with the milk and coke along with the fresh herbs. When you said "trust the process" you weren't kidding. This is some amazing pork and makes the best tacos. You salsas are always on point to accompany the recipe you're sharing with us. Keep up the great work, I enjoy everything I've cooked from your channel

[@CC-dc6hv]

I was wondering why the evaporated milk?

[@dayhanar8371]

Clauida!!! You out did yourself with this one. Like you said the mix is a bit strange but to trust you and I sure did and it was amazing for taco night and I paired with your Mexican rice chefs kiss!!

[@Minnie_Mandie]

I can’t recall if I’ve commented before, but I just followed your carnitas recipe for the 2nd time. This recipe is EVERYTHING! It’s actually really easy to follow and I can’t even begin to describe the aroma while it’s cooking. The flavor and texture of the meat is phenomenal. My kids loved it so much that they were begging me to make it again. Thank you for this video. 😍🤩🫶🏻

[@CookingConClaudia]

Makes me soooo happy ☺️♥️

[@FeistyChick4U]

I made your carnitas first. I didn't have any Coca-Cola so I added a tiny pinch of cinnamon and vanilla with some sugar water. They were the best carnitas ever! I already knew that milk tenderizes pork because I've cooked some that way in my cast iron skillet in the oven years ago. I think yours is the only one online that uses milk. My mom grew up in Texas using evaporated milk in cream of wheat, oatmeal, and mashed potatoes.❤ I got your cookbook recently. Well made. The layout is great that you put the ingredients on the margin and the directions in the middle of the book with photos of the book with photos. The quality of the pages are really nice also. Congrats girl!!!🎉🥰

[@FATHERSOFBASS]

Love how the carne wiggles around… looks like it’s about to melt off and crumble n break apart very nice color too

[@pascualsolorzano5792]

You make Mexican food look so S.A.D. " SIMPLE, AMAZINGLY, DELICIOUS."👍

[@Clean-N-ShineInDfw]

I always wondered what lard was used for while shopping at the Mexican store. Now I know what it can be cooked with. Thanks so much for showing us the container of lard. I've been trying to learn Mexican recipes thanks to you 💜

[@kathleenesparza6495]

I’ve been trying to make carnitas for years but they’d always come out bland. This recipe knocked it out the park. I had to use US coke + turbindo sugar and it STILL tasted great. This will be my only carnitas recipe from now on. Thank you for sharing this ❤

[@fergie2200]

I like this version for Carnitas. I saw that the lard was a different color than we normally see, is it a particular brand, or? As always, a fabulous recipe. Have you thought about doing a cookbook of your recipes? They are so good, I would love to buy one :-)

[@pinkymetoo]

I have the same question about the lard. The container looks like it’s from a butcher counter. I always wondered about the orange and Mexican Coke so now it makes sense. Will 100% be making this recipe. I’ve tried many of Claudia’s recipes and all have been successes.

[@marioquinonez1772]
