Smoke the pork roast until it reaches an internal temperature of 195°F. This can take 14-18 hours, depending on the outside temperature.
When smoking is complete, pull the pork into thin strips, discarding fat and bone.
Make the tropical guacamole by removing the flesh of the avocados and put in a medium sized bowl. Mash with a fort or potato masher. Squeeze the lime juice and stir it into the mashed avocado. Stir in the diced tomato, pineapple and minced jalapeno pepper.
Make the carnitas by putting some pulled pork on a soft tortilla shell and spoon some tropical guacamole on top.
Enjoy.

Place the Frying Dish and the dome lid on your COBB and let it heat up for at least 5 minutes. Heat the oil in the frying dish.
Add the onions and garlic and fry for 10 minutes with the lid on until the onions are soft and translucent.
Mix the cumin, coriander, paprika and chilli into the mince and add to the onions in the pan, stir, making sure to break up any lumps.
Fry for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Keep the lid on to maintain a high temperature.
Add the carrot and red pepper and fry for another 5 minutes (lid off).
Pop in the tomatoes, tomato paste, beans, vinegar, lemon, sugar, salt and pepper. Stir to combine and add more seasoning to taste. Bring the mixture to the boil, then cook for about 20-30 minutes (lid off), stirring every now and then to make sure it doesn’t burn on the bottom.
Remove from the COBB and serve straight from the pan with sour cream or full fat plain yoghurt and fresh coriander.
PS
– The dish does not need them, but serving it with nachos chips adds great
texture and a slightly more hands on approach to eating this fabulous dish!
Blend together all ingredients for the Harissa paste in a blender or food processor until smooth. Add more oil if necessary to reach the right consistency.
