Step 1
Place pork stomach in a large pot. Add halved onion, garlic cloves, and enough water to cover by 2 inches.
Step 2
Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low and simmer 60–75 minutes until pork is completely tender.
Step 3
Remove from heat and let cool 10 minutes in the broth until cool enough to handle.
Step 4
Cut pork into thin bite-sized pieces, discarding any tough membrane. Reserve 1 cup of broth.
Step 5
Return pork to the pot with reserved broth and simmer over medium-low heat for 5 minutes to warm through.
Step 6
Warm tortillas in a skillet over medium heat 30 seconds per side until pliable.
Step 7
Fill each tortilla with a spoonful of pork and a little broth. Top with cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
