Carnitas are an ideal summer dish, particularly suitable for Father’s Day celebrations, featuring juicy, shredded pork encased in tortillas. The slow-cooking method ensures tenderness and depth of flavor from a beer broth infused with citrus. This recipe encourages outdoor dining and social interaction, as guests can assemble their own meals with a variety of toppings. Despite the lengthy cooking time, the recipe requires minimal effort, inviting satisfying flavors and an enjoyable dining atmosphere. Leftovers can creatively enhance future meals, emphasizing carnitas' versatility as a crowd-pleaser.
The key to carnitas is to let the meat cook low and slow until it's meltingly tender, which takes several hours but involves relatively little effort.
Present the meat on a platter along with tortillas and an array of salsas, guacamole and fresh toppings, and let everyone help themselves.
With summer food at its best, carnitas encourage outdoor dining and enjoying cold liquid refreshments amidst fun and messy assembly.
A smoky, citrus-infused beer broth imbues the meat with rich citrusy flavor and spice, enhancing the overall dish and dining experience.
