In a 9" x 11" x 2" casserole dish, or similar volume oven-proof vessel, place all ingredients. Cover with parchment and foil and bake for five hours. Remove from oven and scoop out meat with a hand strainer or spider strainer. Dispose of remaining liquids and solids. Place cooked pork on a foil-lined sheet pan brushed with the olive oil and place under broiler for five minutes. If the bottoms seem too wet, flip the pork and broil the other side for another minute or two. This step needs to be watched - you want the meat to caramelize without burning it or drying it out. Serve simply in a warmed flour tortilla with chopped onion and cilantro. Yield: 4 - 6 servings RECIPE FROM: https://www.afamilyfeast.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
