Warning, this is more of a review of technique than of the recipe as written. Why? Because I did not have any white potatoes, so I used a small sweet potato, I do not own a mandoline, so I used a potato peeler, and I skipped the oil step (as suggested by another reviewer) and used cooking spray on a piece of parchment cut into a round, then sprayed the top of the sweet potato pieces. Cooked for 5 minutes in my microwave, light sprinkle of Kosher salt and oh my, yummy! Sweet potatoes need to be cooked to a light brown as well so they will crisp. Great idea, this could become a habit of mine!

Amazing, the flavor I have been looking for in a carnitas recipe! I also cooked the trimmed pork butt whole in a slow cooker. I kept all the ingredients as written. Very happy with the results.

Creamy, smooth and rich. I made the recipe with the ingredients just as written but I did take another reviewers advice and simply put all the ingredients in a blender and gave it a good long whirl, scraped the sides with a spat and whirled it again. Ice cream turned out perfectly and it is even better after curing in the freezer overnight.
