Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Chop the pork shoulder into large chunks, removing any excess bone.

Slice 5 onions into rings.

Peel 24 cloves of garlic using a garlic peeler.

Season the top of the pork with the special carnitas seasoning, which includes cumin and paprika.

Drop the whole garlic cloves into the pot with the pork and onions.

Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of tomato bouillon between the meat.

Pour chicken stock or water over the bouillon and meat.

Cover the pot tightly with aluminum foil.

Place the covered pot in the oven and set a timer for 3 hours.

After 3.5 to 4 hours, remove the pot from the oven and check the meat for tenderness.

Mash the roasted garlic cloves in a bowl and mix with the shredded pork to absorb the juices.

Heat a pan on the stove and warm the tortillas in the oven or microwave.

Assemble the tortillas with cheese, shredded meat, sour cream, onions, salsa, and cilantro.
