Pork Carnitas. Any tips?

I’ve made this dish 3-4 times and it’s always great- plus feeds an army for a few days.
I usually find a recipe online and tweak it some. Anyone have an exceptional one? I use oranges and a little condensed milk. Sometimes a cinnamon stick. I’m surprised most recipes do not call for dried chilies or chili powder.

I’ve only made them once and used this recipe. Uses a pressure cooker and then broil to crisp up the pork. Cannot rate it highly enough. Pork was tender, juicy, and perfectly crisp on the outside. Reminds me that I need to make it again soon.

Made it Sunday. Cubbed about a 4lb butt. Seasoned with S&P, cumin and oregano. Seared in instapot. Removed, sautéed down an onion, 2 jalapeños, and garlic. Put meat back in, 2 cups of OJ, lime juice, like zest and some cilantro. 35 minute pressure cook with natural release (about 1.5 hrs total). Strained and reserved liquid. Took the pork to the Blackstone griddle and seared it to crisp it up, adding the reserved liquid to keep it moist. Turned out fantastic.

I've made these a few times, they always turn out great. Be sure to crisp them up in a cast iron skillet after you shred them!!

Keep the drippings from the pork and use it for basting after you crisp the bits up
