Category:	Category: Meats

Ingredients:	Ingredients: 3 lbs boneless pork shoulder or country-style ribs 6 cloves garlic zest of 1 orange, cut into strips 3/4 c fresh orange juice Sea salt 1 TBS oil Tortillas

Directions:	Directions: Cut pork into strips and put into frying pan with garlic, orange zest, orange juice and 1 tsp sea salt. Meat should be in a single layer if possible. Add water to barely cover the meat and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook stirring occasionally until all the liquid has evaporated, about 1 hour. If meat is not yet fork tender, add a bit of water and continue cooking. Cook until fat is rendered and the meat is browning in the melted fat, 10-15 minutes. Usually there is enough fat but if needed, add 1 TBS oil. When meat is brown and crisp, using a slotted spoon, lift out meat, drain and serve with tortillas, guacamole, lettuce and tomato.
