Why do you head to a tacos restaurant when you can do this deliciouspork Carnitas recipe at home? Thank you to this practiceSlow cooker recipeYou can take a large batch of pork carnitas, perfect for a crowd as you celebrate your favorite day: Taco Tuesday!

While pork carnitas can be made with a pork shoulder, I found that it did this with a pork roast to be quite easy. You can find a roast pork between four to five pounds in most grocery stores. The roast I used wasJoe's Trader!

Cooking, you just have to rub someSeasoning for homemade tacos, Take some cut onions and sprinkle on lime juice. But the secret ingredient for a perfect pork Carnitas Taco? Freshly squeezed orange juice! That's right, buy two oranges, cut them into quarters and take out the juice right in the slow cooker over the meat. This will give pork a juicy and tangy flavor that can not be beaten.

This recipe can roast in height for four hours, but for best results, let it roast on the low for eight. The meat will fall by falling when you start breaking it! Serve it with tortillas, limes, cheeses from the fresco queso (or Cotija!) And, of course, red onions marinated.

How to make marinated onions

Make onions marinated house is easy. Finely slicing a red onion and place it in a large pot. In a medium bowl, mix a cup of apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1 tablespoon of salt. Once the salt and sugar dissolve, pour the mixture into the pot with the onions. Keep the refrigerator for at least one hour before serving, but for better results, take a lot at night before making tacos.
