SLOW COOKER CARNITAS
Carnitas means 'little meats' and is traditionally fried then braised. This recipe is made much easier using the slow cooker but the results are just as tasty. This makes a great filling for tamales, enchiladas, tacos and burritos. This filling is also great combined with your favorite barbecue sauce and served on buns.

- Mix together salt, garlic powder, cumin, oregano, coriander, and cinnamon in a bowl. Coat pork with the spice mixture. Place the bay leaves in the bottom of a slow cooker and place the pork on top. Pour the chicken broth around the sides of the pork, being careful not to rinse off the spice mixture.
- Cover and cook on Low until the pork shreds easily with a fork, about 10 hours. Turn the meat after it has cooked for 5 hours. When the pork is tender, remove from slow cooker, and shred with two forks. Use cooking liquid as needed to moisten the meat.

- Heat the pork fat to medium heat in a medium heavy pot. After about 5 minutes, add the seasoned pork. Cook for 5-6 minutes or until pork is lightly browned.
- Add in the coke, canela, bay leaves and thyme. The carnitas will cook for the next 90 minutes to 2 hours and a steady boil. Skim the top as needed as it cooks.
- At about the 2 hour mark, the carnitas will be this nice caramelized color and should pull apart easily with a fork. Drain onto paper towels. For a crispy carnita, transfer carnitas to a nonstick pan with no oil. Heat on high and toss carnitas as needed. Serve right away.
