How To make Smoked Carnitas
6 pounds pork butt
1 large onion
diced
4 tablespoons ground New Mexican chile
1 tablespoon cumin seed :
roasted and ground
2 teaspoons granulated garlic
1 teaspoon dry oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
to cover water
Smoke the pork butt with your favorite wood at a low temperature for about three hours. You might even consider boning it and cutting it in two pieces. The idea here is to get the smoke flavor and not to cook it till it is tender. Once you think you have plenty of smoke on the butt, transfer it to a large pot. Add the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to a hard simmer and cook, stirring occasionally for about 2 hours. When stirring, stir hard, trying to break the pork up. When the water is gone, but there is still plenty of moisture, the pork is done.

Carnitas - My Fav Taco!
Carnitas, AKA little meats, is a Mexican dish that originated in the state of Michoacán. Carnitas are made by braising or simmering pork lard until tender, then slightly pulled and crisped. The result is juicy, yet crispy. Carnitas are one of my favorite tacos of all time traditionally served on fresh corn tortillas with cilantro and onions.

The make ahead Carnitas recipe everyone should know how to make.
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.
