PREPARATION

1
Toss the pork shoulder chunks with sea salt, black pepper, ground cumin, and dried oregano until evenly coated.
2
Place the seasoned pork into a slow cooker or a heavy-bottomed Dutch oven along with the orange juice, lime juice, and minced garlic.
3
Cover and cook on low for 7 hours or simmer on the stovetop for 2.5 hours until the meat is tender enough to shred with a fork.
4
Transfer the shredded meat to a hot non-stick skillet with a splash of the braising liquid and sear until the edges are golden and crispy.
5
Toast the corn tortillas over an open flame or in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side until warm and pliable.
6
Divide the crispy carnitas among the tortillas and top with a dollop of Greek yogurt, diced red onion, fresh cilantro, and sliced radishes.
