Dad's tip

If you're making these for carnitas, throw one of these into the jar with the onions before you pour the brine over — it costs nothing and changes the flavour entirely:

Half a dried oregano tsp — adds a Mexican herb note
One garlic clove, sliced — punchy, savoury backbone
Half a jalapeño, sliced — subtle background heat
