Today, the #SundaySupper gang will be sharing Mexican Fiesta recipes in honor of Mexico’s Independence day.
This great idea is sponsored by my good friend Heather over at Girlichef
I made Carnitas!
We’ll be meeting up tonight at 7:00 p.m. EST for our weekly #SundaySupper live chat where we’ll talk about our favorite Mexican Fiesta recipes!
All you have to do is follow the #SundaySupper hashtag, or you can follow us throughTweetChat!
We’d also love to feature your Mexican Fiesta recipes on our #SundaySupper Pinterest board and share them with all of our followers!
Carnitas
Ingredients:
3 lbs pork shoulder cut into cubes
1/2 cup white vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
6 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon cumin
1 tablespoon salt
Directions:
Put the pork into a large dutch oven. Add vinegar, sugar, garlic cumin and salt. Cover with just enough water to cover the meat. Bring to a boil and simmer for 2 hours. Crank up the heat to medium high and continue to cook another hour; stirring occasionally until all the fat is rendered from the meat. Once it is browned on all sides it is done.
Serve with tortillas, chopped onion, or avocados like I did.
Take a look at what everyone else brought to the table. I cant wait to try all these dishes.
