My family enjoyed the tender moist Carne Adovada in tacos for dinner tonight with the addition of chopped onion and fresh cilantro, it just like the old days when we lived in NM. It was easy to prepare, the time in the oven did most the work. I did cook it at 350 for the last half hour with the cover off the the meat to give it a little char for extra flavor. Will be a repeat dinner for sure. Thanks! -
Very good. I prepared this a day in advance (except cooking) so I could marinate the meat in the sauce overnight, and I included the pepper seeds as well. Cooked quite a bit longer than the stated time (even after allowing for refrigerated starting temperature), but I think I cut the butt in pieces a little larger than 1 1/2 inches. Served very simply in warmed tortillas.
