Slow-Cooker Chipotle Beef Carnitas Recipe: How to Make It image

I came up with this recipe while trying to figure out what I could do with a pot roast that had been in the freezer. Now I keep the rub in a plastic bag, ready and waiting in my cupboard, and I can get the roast in the slow cooker in less than 15 minutes. —Ann Piscitelli, Nokomis, Florida

Remove the cloves, bay leaves, and oregano sprig (if you used the sprigs) from the braising liquid. Then using an immersion blender puree into a sauce. If the sauce is too thin, simmer it on the stovetop until it has reduced a little. Meanwhile, using two forks, shred the pork shoulder. Return the shredded meat to the simmering sauce.

CHIPOTLE MEXICAN GRILL CARNITAS COPYCAT RECIPE
Braised and shredded pork shoulder is a staple of Mexican cuisine that Chipotle prepares with a simple blend of flavors, and a surprising ingredient you may not have expected: juniper berries. Once you track those down (they’re easy to find online), the berries are combined with thyme and bay leaves in a braising liquid that will transform your own pork roast into an easily shreddable thing of beauty in under 3 hours. Then you can use your freshly cloned carnitas on tacos, in burritos, or in a bowl over rice and beans just like they do in the restaurant. When picking your pork roast, try to find one without too much fat. If your roast has a thick cap of fat on it, trim off the excess. You want some fat in your braising liquid, but if the cap of fat is too thick, it may not fully render down and you’ll get chunks of fat in the shred. It’s often assumed that the pork butt is from the rear end of the pig, even though cuts from the back region already have a name: ham. The pork butt, also known as a Boston butt, is cut from the other end, the upper shoulder of the pig. It’s called a “butt” because in pre-Revolutionary War New England the roasts were stored and transported in barrels called “butts”, and the confusing name stuck. This recipe was our #5 most popular in 2020.

  • Rinse pork roast under cool water; pat dry with a paper towel, which helps create less steam and a better sear. Preheat a dutch oven over medium-high heat; add 2 T. olive oil. Place pork on a plate/platter; sprinkle 1 t. salt and 1 t. pepper on all sides. Once oil is shimmering and hot, carefully place pork in a Dutch oven. Don't wait or the seasoning will begin to draw out moisture. Sear each side. Allow pork to sizzle in the pan without touching it for at least 2 minutes. The pork will naturally release from the pan once it is properly seared. If it's sticking to the pan, more than likely it's not seared yet. It will take 2-5 minutes per side. Reduce heat if the pan is getting too hot. Line a 6 quart slow cooker with a slow cooker liner for easy clean up. Add bay leaves to the bottom of the slow cooker; place pork on top of bay leaves; carefully pour remaining cooking liquid from Dutch oven over the pork. Add 1/2 c. water to Dutch oven, return to medium-high heat. Use a silicone spatula or wooden spoon to scrape the stuck browned bits from the bottom. When the mixture is boiling, pour it over the pork in the slow cooker. Sprinkle rosemary, thyme and remaining salt and pepper over the pork in the slow cooker. Flip pork once to season the other side. Cover; cook on High 5-6 hours or on Low 10-12 hours. When the pork is tender, remove pork to a platter; carefully shred with 2 forks. Return shredded pork to the slow cooker. Taste for seasoning, if necessary add salt to taste. Carefully stir to coat pork in cooking liquid. Cover; cook 30-60 minutes to help the pork absorb the juices. Serve. 15 minutes
