Title: St. Bede's Carnitas
Categories: Pork, Citrus, Vegetables, Herbs, Chilies
Yield: 5 Servings

3 lb Pork butt; in large pieces
- (2" × 2")
1 lb Lard
1/2 Orange; skin on, quartered
1 Lime; skin on, quartered
4 cl Garlic; skinned, left whole,
Slightly smashed
1 Jalapeno; stemmed, in 1/2"
- rings, seeds left in
1 md Onion; peeled, quartered
1 ts Salt
1/2 ts Fresh ground black pepper
1/2 ts Oregano
1 ts Cumin
1/2 ts Garlic powder
1/4 c Bacon fat
1 tb Olive oil

Set oven @ 275ºF/135ºC.

In a 9" x 11" x 2" casserole dish, or similar volume
oven-proof vessel, place all ingredients. Cover with
parchment and foil and bake for five hours.

Remove from oven and scoop out meat with a hand strainer
or spider strainer. Dispose of remaining liquids and
solids.

Place cooked pork on a foil-lined sheet pan brushed with
the olive oil and place under broiler for five minutes.
If the bottoms seem too wet, flip the pork and broil the
other side for another minute or two. This step needs to
be watched - you want the meat to caramelize without
burning it or drying it out.

Serve simply in a warmed flour tortilla with chopped
onion and cilantro.

Yield: 4 - 6 servings
