This was surprisingly good! I’m not a fan of pork but my mom wanted a cubano so I bought this to make one for her and it was a hit.

Quality of product is declining!
Quality is declining! The last two purchases have been mostly fat. Additionally the volume is shrinking less meat along with lots of non-edible pieces of a substance.

Not worth it
Super salty and dry. Does not taste like authentic carnitas. The cooking instructions were also not enough to get it cooked through to the safe temperature. Not worth the price for a quick dinner in a pinch.

Great flavor, good quality cut of pork
My husband adored this compared to comparable products from other companies. He stated the quality of the cut was superior to those other brands, and the meat lacked all the gelatinous fat hunks that other brands have had. It sure smelled great! Would repurchase for a quick Mexican-inspired meal!

Not worth it
Barely any meat and of low quality. Definitely not worth the price. If I wanted “mostly liquid”, I would’ve bought broth for much less.

Excellent taste!!
I love the carnitas!! They have a good taste, my kids love it too. As a single mom very affordable. I have a suggestion put a lid on the container so we can recycle the container.

So disappointed
Was super excited for this for dinner. Lacks flavor and thank god we didn’t cook it as long as the box said because the meat was dry already when we pulled it out early. $8 for less than a pound of unflavored pork.

These are some of the best flavorful prepared carnitas I’ve found. A bit pricey for the amount you get.

Tender, flavorful, and tastes homemade!
These carnitas are incredible - juicy, perfectly seasoned, and taste like they’ve been slow-cooked all day. I use them for tacos, burritos, or even breakfast with eggs. They heat up fast but never lose that authentic flavor. You’d never guess they came from a refrigerated pack. My go-to for an easy, delicious meal!

Great addition to the busy family meal rotation.
Very happy with this first time purchase. Good portion for the cost, easy to mix with beans and rice for a quick and tasty meal, nice quality meat.
