DAILY RECIPE

Carnitas with Pico De Gallo

SUBMITTED BY: jamielynne 

Pork shoulder is simmered in a slow cooker with chiles and spices, then served on tortillas with pico de gallo. This recipe stems from a household that loves carnitas and has perfected it. It makes a lot of food and I have never thrown a piece away. My neighbors, employees, family, and friends love it. A must for social occasions.
