The recipe makes enough for a crowd or for plenty of leftovers that you can use throughout the week or freeze for later, and includes instructions for making them in your slow cooker or instant pot. And, crisping the carnitas in the oven all at once instead of frying them in batches makes this recipe even easier. NOTE ABOUT THE COOK TIME FOR THIS RECIPE: The amount of time these Carnitas take to cook will depend on whether you cook them in a Slow Cooker or Instant Pot (or using the slow cooker setting on an Instant Pot). Using a Slow Cooker, the pork will take 8-9 hours on low or 5-6 hours on high. In an Instant Pot set to pressure cook at high pressure, the pork will take 2 hours and 30 minutes.
