Today, I made a big double batch of Tasty Kitchen's Carnitas. I saw them linked last week and heard my friend, Sarah, rave about how they were the best thing she had ever cooked. We love pulled pork, we love tacos, why the heck not pulled pork tacos???
I followed her recipe to some extent. I was able to get a 7 lb pork loin at Sam's for $14, so I used that instead of pork shoulder. It also has less fat. I had to add a pack of taco seasoning because I ran out of cumin.
It is sooooo good. Like soooooooOOOOOooooo goooooOOOOOd!!! And it was easy, maybe 20 minutes of prep, a little chopping at the end. Plus, I got to drink the left over Dos Equis from deglazing the pan. Woot!
We had a big supper AND I was able to put 3 bags of pork in the freezer for the following weeks. I also got some 20 packs of tortillas at Sam's for only $2 each, so I split them up and froze them too. Super easy, so yummy suppers, no work!!!
Take a peek in my freezer and check out my loot! Tomorrow, we are eating a random frozen meal I had tucked away; Mystery Meal!
