Carnitas

• 1 lb dried pinto bean (soaked)
• 3 lbs pork roast
• 7 cups water
• 1/2 cup onion, chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 2 tablespoons chili powder
• 1 tablespoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon oregano
• 4 ounces green chili peppers, chopped (one can)

1. Put all ingredients in a dutch oven. Cover and simmer about 5 hours, or until the roast falls apart and the beans are done. Uncover and cook about 1/2 hour until the desired thickness is achieved. Remove pork and shred.
2. I used some of the leftover cooking water to make rice to go with the meal. I've also used the leftover cooking water as a base for bean soup. Smashed some of the beans and added some whole to the water. Added more garlic, onions, grated carrots and macaroni. Made a great soup.
