I didn't use canned chxn stock, but maybe I had salted instead of unsalted. The flavor was so good otherwise that I was thinking about maybe using it in a chili dish with beans and no additional salt. What do you think about that idea?<br /><br />Thx again.Higgins' momnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5529476945299310517.post-60485899686369433192011-04-18T15:26:35.352-05:002011-04-18T15:26:35.352-05:00higgin's mom,

There is really only two teaspoons of salt in the entire recipe for an almost 5 pound cut of meat. Did you use a smaller cut of meat? Did you use very salty canned chicken stock? <br /><br />It might be good to make sandwiches out of, with an unsalted bread, or use in a mexican-style soup perhaps, just reduce the salt it calls for in the soup, and use a low salt broth. Those are some thoughts off the top of my head! <br /><br />Please let me know if you have any more questions!Briahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06221475667151375694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5529476945299310517.post-58258678978977751502011-04-18T15:10:43.051-05:002011-04-18T15:10:43.051-05:00Hi Bria.

I have a good amount of pork left and wondered if you had any thoughts about what I might fuse with the pork to reduce somewhat the intensity of the salt.<br />Thanks! I got to your website via Huff Post, and will look forward to coming back. <br />Best.Higgins' momnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5529476945299310517.post-79651508970089217122011-03-06T15:42:25.901-06:002011-03-06T15:42:25.901-06:00K- Yes I added the bacon back in when I returned t...K- Yes I added the bacon back in when I returned the pork to the cooking liquid, prior to braising. It ends up almost disintegrating into the pork, but that just means more flavor. Let me know how they turn out!!<br /><br />-BriaBriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06221475667151375694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5529476945299310517.post-50580820313657652272011-03-06T13:51:56.614-06:002011-03-06T13:51:56.614-06:00i'm making this tonite - got the pork braising...i'm making this tonite - got the pork braising in the oven. do you think i should add the bacon back in? did i miss that on the recipe? i'm so excited!!!!Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04776606599182294694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5529476945299310517.post-27204267531403487012011-03-03T21:43:13.839-06:002011-03-03T21:43:13.839-06:00I found your recipe after work and stopped by the ...I found your recipe after work and stopped by the grocery store on the way home. I made it tonight and used a boston butt since the pork shoulders looked old. I used a 3.75 pound butt and it cooked in 2 hours.

I would highly reccomend not skipping the bacon, and the searing of the pork. Once all the pieces are seared, deglaze your pan with some chicken stock to get all the delicious brown bits, then transfer the juice, along with the rest of the liquids into your crock pot, bring up to heat, then add the pork, and cook until it is falling apart. You can then always transfer the sauce back to a small saucepan to reduce. It may be a little more work, all the transferring, but it would be nice to set it during the day and forget about it. <br /><br />One of the things I like about searing/braising in a large dutch oven, is that you only have to use one pot, but I bet a crockpot would work just fine! <br /><br />Carrie - it is sooo easy, he will LOVE you. Update, it is only tuesday, and the carnitas are completely gone :-(<br /><br />Thanks everyone!Briahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06221475667151375694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5529476945299310517.post-67297464238610099902011-02-22T09:34:11.775-06:002011-02-22T09:34:11.775-06:00do you have any recommendations for making this in...do you have any recommendations for making this in a crock pot? it's my new favorite toy and i'm trying to get as much use out of it as possible!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02349677635010145344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5529476945299310517.post-86563838709651188702011-02-22T02:02:28.767-06:002011-02-22T02:02:28.767-06:00Sounds so delicious.
