Best Carnitas Tacos with Tomatillo Sauce and Avocado

 

 

Way out of my comfort zone and loving every second of it.   Having some boneless pork shoulder in the freezer all cut up in 2-inch cubes, it was only the right course of action to make carnitas with them.

The combination of grapefruit, I have a tree in my backyard that gives out the sweetest juice of them all, and the milk leaves the meat with a savory flavor. Once all cooked off the meat will sear to perfection because of the sweetness left on it by both, milk and grapefruit.

Ingredients

CARNITAS
2-pounds. boneless pork shoulder cut into 2-inch cubes
2 garlic cloves peeled
½ onion, outer skin removed and left intact
1 tablespoon of sea salt

½ cup whole milk

3 poblanos peppers
14 ounces tomatillos, husk removed
1 clove of garlic peeled
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
