SLOW COOKER CARNITAS RECIPE | ALLRECIPES



Slow Cooker Carnitas Recipe | Allrecipes image

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.
