- 3-4 lb pork butt cut into about palm sized chunks
- Juice of two oranges, keep the rind
- Juice of two limes
- Half a large onion cut into 3 chunks
- Salt
- Oregano
- Cayenne
- Cumin
- 3 Bay leaves
Put all of that into a Dutch oven and cover with chicken stock. Include the orange rinds…never the lime rinds
Bring to a simmer on the stove top
Put it into a 300 degree oven with lid on for two hours.
Take the chunks and onion out and put on a cookie sheet. Break up the meat chunks into smaller chunks.
Add honey to the liquid in the Dutch oven and reduce for about 20 min.
Put some of the reduced liquid over the meat on the tray. Put under the broiler for 6-8 min.
Take out and turn the meat over. Put more of the reduced liquid on top and put under the broiler for another 6-8 min.
You will have the most crispy yet tender flavor bombs!
