Step by step how to cook Mike's EZ Pork Carnitas:
- Use 2 packets. This really is a great brand! It's avaliable at most any major supermarket..
- Pan sear your pork roast on all sides in a slight amount of oil..
- Add all of your vegetables and seasonings [except for your sides/garnishments] and simmer covered stove top [fat side up] for 3 hours. You'll know she's done when you can easily pull the bone from your roast. Or, shread roast easily with 2 forks..
