Directions
Carnitas, From Bon Appetit 2003. This is one that I didn’t even put my own spin on. The orange juice, chipotle and rum are great flavor enhancers., I marinated and smoked pork loin from a warehouse club. It was too much for us to eat, so used the leftover cooked pork and cooked for less time. I simmered the smoked pork for about an hour and then added spiced rum. My husband loves carnitas and this was my first time trying to cook it. He loved it. It was a really spicy and great recipe. I’m adding this to my “make again” folder., Very yummy as is! Pork turned out tender, and made enough for several days worth of meals for two people. Left the seeds in the chipotle peppers and, although my fiancee found the meat a bit spicy immediately after cooking, she found the spice level mellowed nicely after a couple days in the fridge. Will definitely make this recipe again.
