Siete Pork Carnitas
This mostly hands-off recipe yields falling-apart-tender pork shoulder after hours in the slow-cooker. Premixed seasoning from Siete delivers all the flavor with fewer steps. Finish in locally made spinach wraps from Angelic Bakehouse or your favorite tortilla. Leftovers can be reheated for days and tossed in grain bowls, hash browns, and sandwiches.
