Been on a canning binge of late. Decided to try canning some carnitas for an easy shelf-stable meal. Decided to use the following as a base.

Canned Carnitas

In addition to the recipe I added 1/4 tsp each of granulated garlic, granulated onion, and chili powder.

Tried it a couple nights ago. Poured off the liquid into a sauce pan and reduced. Put the meat in a oiled saute pan and added the reduced liquid. Browned.

Put the whole mess over tortilla chips, with avocado, cheese, homemade smoked salsa, cheese and cilantro. Nachos carnitas.

Outstanding! Only thing I might do in the future is to cut the salt in half.
