CHIPOTLE'S CARNITAS (PULLED PORK)
I had some serious cravings for taco carnitas and chips from Chipotle while I was pregnant with my sons. This recipe tastes exactly like theirs. We serve this on warm soft shells with a mix of monterey jack and white cheddar cheese. The kids also like to squeeze a bit of lime juice on their tacos. I can't believe it was this easy to make. The leftovers freeze well.

Steps:
- Season pork well on all sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat oil in a large skillet.
- Sear pork in hot oil on all sides, approximately 3 minutes per side or until dark golden brown.
- Place the roast in a crock pot and add bay leaves, thyme and juniper berries.
- Cover and cook on low until meat is tender and shreds easily. Time will vary depending on how large your cut of meat is. We usually have a 3-4 pound roast and it takes @ 6 - 7 hours. You can start it on high for 2 hours and turn it down as well.
