Rub pork butt with kosher salt. Place in slow cooker, fat side up. Add water, orange juice, chopped sweet onion, and season generously with Spiceology x Derek Wolf Jalapeño Lime Pilsner.
Cook on low for 6–8 hours, turning occasionally, until fork-tender. - Let rest, shred with forks (discard excess fat), and return to slow cooker to soak up those juices.

Preheat oven to 400°F.
Pulse 1 cup frozen corn in a food processor until coarsely pureed. Mix with softened butter, sugar, and salt. Stir in masa harina, then fold in remaining ½ cup corn by hand.
Form into 4 patties, ~1" thick. Bake on greased or parchment-lined sheet for 25 minutes, until bottoms are golden.

Flip cakes, bake another 5–7 minutes until browned on both sides.
For lime crema: mix lime zest + juice, sour cream, garlic, and salt until smooth. Store in a squeeze bottle if you’ve got one.
