Overview

El Financiero listed Las Carnitas Caramelo, located next to Quiroga's main plaza, among the town's carnitas stops. Quiroga, sometimes called the capital of the Tarascos, sits near Lake Pátzcuaro and is known for its carnitas, which are sold from a corridor of stalls around the plaza.

Michoacán carnitas are made by simmering and then frying pork in its own lard in a copper cazo until the meat is tender inside and browned outside. They are sold by the kilo or in tacos on corn tortillas, dressed with onion, cilantro, salsa and lime, and buyers typically ask for a mix of cuts.

Context

The plaza location places Caramelo at the center of the town's carnitas trade, alongside businesses such as El Rey de las Carnitas.
