Caramelized Carnitas

Caramelized Carnitas

1&1/2 lbs pork shoulder
salt and pepper
2 cloves garlic, chopped
4 tbsp brown sugar
2 Tbsp molasses
1/3 c water
green onions for garnish
limes

Cut pork into 1 inch cubes. Place pork in saute pan and season with salt and pepper. Brown meat on all sides, then add the garlic, brown sugar, molasses, and water. Stir once, reduce heat and let simmer (on medium) for about 35min. (This is the perfect time to make tortillas and black beans to go with it!) After about 35min, then sauce will be thick and will start sticking to the meat, caramelizing it. Serve on warm tortillas with a squeeze of lime juice and cheese.
