PORK CARNITAS for DELICIOUS TACOS STEP BY STEP! ❤

I grew up eating CARNITAS, my uncles and aunts would bring my cousins over to our house while my dad and grandpa made CARNITAS in a big outdoor pot, that's where I learned to make them, I have now mastered the recipe and made it my own, they are delicious especially when seasoned well with herbs and spices, I try my best to explain as much as I can in this video without boring you, please send me questions or comments if you wish, it's a dish worth making.❤
