HISTORY

Carnitas

Carnitas is a beloved Mexican dish from Michoacán, Mexico, known for its rich, tender, and crispy slow-cooked pork. Traditionally, authentic carnitas are made by simmering pork in lard inside a large copper cazo (pot) for hours, creating its signature juicy interior and crispy golden edges. This Mexican street food favorite is served in tacos, tortas, burritos, and quesadillas, offering a bold, savory flavor with hints of tangy citrus, aromatic oregano, marjoram, and peppercorns—some recipes even add cola or citrus soda for extra caramelization.

At Mexican taquerías, skilled taqueros chop and shred crispy carnitas on well-worn wooden blocks, piling the meat high onto warm corn tortillas. Each carnitas taco is traditionally topped with fresh diced onions, chopped cilantro, and salsa of choice—we recommend spicy salsa roja for the perfect balance of flavor, heat, and texture.
