2- Braise each side of the pork shoulder to a slight golden crust
3- Remove meat and set aside, use ¾ cup of chicken stock to DEGLAZE the pan (put cool liquid in hot pan then stir to loosen any fonds stuck to the pain). Once pan is deglazed, pour contents into crockpot.

12- Remove the meat from juices by placing meat in a strainer OVER the crockpot (this is so the juices are kept and not lost)
13- Heat oven to HIGH broil
14- Take parchment paper cover large baking sheet
15- Use 1/3 stick of butter to coat meat then place on parchment, ensure thin layers
16- Place in oven for 2 minutes, remove and turn meat over, place back in for additional 2 minutes

  5. Hi Amanda, I was raised in a Cuban household and have been cooking Spanish food since I could reach the stove! I absolutely love your recipe except I must warn you about "Sazon". It is loaded with MSG so I stopped using it and switched up to using "Adobo" instead. ❤️ Many blessings to you and your journey. 🙏

  9. I'm just wondering how you get calcium or other vitamins that aren't found in meat. Is the cheese you eat enough to provide for calcium needs?

    I have the same issue you do with being addicted to carbs…mainly sugar. I can't control myself when I eat that stuff. I thought I was just weak. I've been trying keto but I still sneak in salsa and corn chips. I have salads but try to use a low sugar dressing. I am having some success but not like you. I am 20 years older though! Any thoughts?

  17. Oh, I like the idea of baking at the end. I make pork shoulder in a slow cooker frequently. I just add salt and cook it for 6-8 hours till it's falling apart but next time I'm going to shred it and put it in the oven to crisp it up as well. Look great!

  22. I know this is totally off topic but I’m in love with your glasses you wear that looks turquoise colored on top, I have seen them in some of your other videos, would you please share where you get all your cool eye glasses from?😊❤ and the food looks yummy too.
