Carnitas

• Pork:
• 1 boneless pork butt, 3 1/2 pounds, trimmed, cut into 2-inch chunks
• 1 small onion, peeled, halved
• 2 cups water
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 teaspoon each: ground cumin, dried oregano, salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
• Juice of 1 lime
• 1 orange, halved
• Tacos:
• 36 (6-inch) corn tortillas, warmed
• Minced onion, fresh cilantro leaves, thinly sliced
• radishes, sour cream, lime wedges

1. 1Heat oven to 300 degrees. Combine pork, onion and water in a Dutch oven. Add bay leaves, cumin, oregano, salt, pepper and lime juice. Juice the orange into a bowl; remove seeds. Add juice and the juiced orange halves to the pan.
2. 2Heat mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Cover; place in the oven. Cook, turning meat halfway through the cooking time, until tender and an inserted fork meets little resistance, 2-2 1/2 hours.
3. 3Remove pan from oven; turn oven to broil. Transfer the pork to a bowl using a slotted spoon. Discard the orange halves, onion and bay leaves from the braising liquid. Heat the liquid to a simmer over medium-high heat on the stove top; cook, stirring often, to a syrupy glaze that measures about 1 cup, 8-12 minutes.
4. 4Meanwhile, pull each piece of pork in half, using two forks; add to Dutch oven. Toss to coat with braising liquid; season with salt and pepper to taste. Place pork pieces in an even layer on a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet or on a broiler pan. Broil until well browned, 5-8 minutes. Turn meat; broil until well browned, 5-8 minutes. Spoon pork into warm tortillas; serve with garnishes.
