Answer 1

I think I know what are you taking about, you probably bought it in a Mexican meat market and is usually call plain and simple: "Carnitas", and you are right you can buy them already cook for a dollar amount or by weight and they are really good.

Hope that helps and that you found what you are looking for.

Buen Probecho!!

Spanish could desire to be a call for of being a police officer and positively, ANY community worker in those states. except the officer claimed to communicate spanish and then ought to not handle interior the placement he replaced into attending the place spanish replaced into the the only language spoken - then he could desire to be suspended and fired because of fact he lied.
