Carnitas - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    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)
Preparation
    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.
    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.
