Directions:
- Start with removing any excess pieces of fat from the pork.
- In a large,heavy saucepan, place the pork along with the orange zest, orange juice, cumin, bay leaves, onion, garlic and bouillon.
- Fill with water just so it barely covers the pork.
- Cover and bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Reduce heat to medium low and simmer for about 2 hours.
- Turn off the heat and allow the meat to cool and any excess fat to raise to the top.
- Remove the excess fat, and place the cooled pork in a large bowl.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- In a separate fry pan, heat the lard and fry the pork pieces for about 6 minutes, just so they turn golden; allow them to cool.
- Using your hands, pull the meat apart.
- In a comal over medium heat, heat the tortillas.
- Once you heated all of the tortillas, make tacos with the shredded meat and add your own favorite Mexican salsa.
