Everyone should know how to make carnitas, specifically, this make-ahead version just makes sense for the home cook. It's literally, cut up pork chunks, add salt, add water, cook until tender and crisp up beautifully. It takes about an hour and a half total, but like 10 minutes of that is active time.

And then there's the fact that your recipes are very appealing to people who can't spare the time nor resources to cook at home, and who would otherwise choose junk food instead.

This video demonstrates several of the reasons I love this channel. There's focus on practical applications for the home cook. The goal isn't to make the world's best carnitas while sacrificing all other considerations. The goal is to make excellent carnitas at home while optimising taste, time, and practicality/efficiency in the home kitchen. In service of that goal, Ethan seems to adhere to traditional cooking techniques while keeping an open mind to modify when appropriate. Best cooking channel on KZbin 🔥

Thanks for this - I happened to have a pork shoulder in my freezer when this came out, so I did this just now, and it was great! Super easy, the pork at the end (before even frying it up) is really tasty, and now I have a quart of carnitas in my fridge for the week. :-) The only thing I did differently was that I just pulled it apart by hand at the end, after giving it about 20 minutes to cool. Actually turned out great, with an overall texture combining both small chunks (like chopping) with those threads (like mashing), and I didn't have to wash anything afterwards other than my hands. The only downside was that more of it ended up in my mouth than I intended! Can't wait to eat it for lunches this week.

We usually just cook the carnitas in its own juices for about an hour with a lid to keep the moisture from evaporating, might add an extra cup of water if the meat didn’t release enough water and once it evaporates then we just keep an eye on it moving it around so it doesn’t burn and we remove from pan once they’re crispy. Throwing away the water like you did makes me feel like I’m throwing away it’s flavor.

When making pasta with large chunks of garlic, add the garlic to the oil before bringing the heat up. It won't burn the garlic as long as you toss the other ingredients in before it smokes, but it will release the garlic flavour through the oil.

I've been mexican from Mexico all my life. Over 35 years. I'd just assumed I had to be a Señora Michoacana with access to tons of manteca to be able to pull this off. You opened up a whole new world of hedonism for me here. Thanks for sharing your recipes. Damn.

Hey man! Probably not gonna see this, but I want to thank you wholeheartedly. In a few months, I am going to be moving into my first apartment, and the one thing that I am worried about is finding time to cook (I work as a professional chef and it is hard to find the desire to cook after you cook for 10 hours a day) and seeing these cook and chill recipes is inspiring me. I am saving every recipe I can find to a playlist. Thank you for inspiring me to cook more at home and I will continue to support and watch your videos!

It’s a damn good thing the algorithm gods brought me to you. It’s only been a few days since this happened and I have plenty of new recipes to try and I love your no nonsense approach. AND the fact you clean as you go, well that’s the icing on the cake.

Just did the first bit anticipating a few meals in the next couple of days. I didn’t exactly expect bland pork, but I did *not* expect it to taste this awesome either! My simmering took nearly 2 hours but I let it go because the texture wasn’t there for me after 1. I didn’t go until it was completely devoid of water though. Instead I strained (through paper towels) fat and water into a bowl to put in the fridge. Tomorrow I’ll have a nice lard puck for the “crisp up” stage!

Have to give this version a try, a couple days ago I made Chef John's Carnitas braised with milk and orange and it was the first one I've done that had the right texture, this looks easier and I have some frozen chunks of pork that I'm probably not going to turn into sausage as planned so it's carnitas or rillettes.

Ty soo much for this simple recipe. I now make them and store in the freezer using vacuum bags. Saved so much money 'cos i dont need to buy delivery fast food when i get home late. Just pop one bag in the fridge put a little cheddar and BAM turns into carnita burguers. (The processed cheese blends together the strings)

Carnitas are def one of my favs. I learned how to make homemade tamales a year or so ago and that is always my go-to filling. I'm not going to lie though, I typically don't make the filling myself😐I usually buy the heat-n-eat kind you find in the refrigerated section with the ready made meatloaf and roast beef. This would be an excellent way to make it in bulk and use it as needed though. I do that with a lot of other meats so I will definitely give it a try.

For a second there it looked like you were in El Paso - that taco is spot on. BTW - one of the the key reasons I like your channel is that not only is it informative, but it is also unpretentious and practical. This video really illustrates that aspect.

I've been going through many pork shoulders recently. Definitely mostly for carnitas tacos/burritos. But I tried something new and it's a must: CUBANS. Definitely in my rotation now whenever I cook down a pork shoulder.
