Revisión: La mesa del bufé estaba muy bien organizada. Había varios tipos de carne sobre las que había deliciosas salsas a disposición.
The buffet table was beautifully arranged. There were several types of meat with delicious sauces on them.
New sentence: please correct if necessary:
La mesa del bufé estaba muy bien organizada. Había varios tipos de carne con deliciosas salsas en ellos.
Alternate English: There were several types of meat on top of which were delicious sauces. This is the more literal translation of the Spanish that I wrote, but the first way would be more commonly said. I constructed the Spanish this way because I am trying to learn how to use "el cual or la cual" instead of "que" or "lo que".
Please correct my Spanish and tell me if you would say this differently.
Por favor, corrija mi español y dime si querrías decir esto de otra manera.

Traditional carnitas (little meats) are made by simmering pork meat in lard until tender over a very low heat in a copper pot.
Once the lard has melted, pork and flavorings are added (usually salt, chili, cumin, oregano or Mexican oregano, marjoram, thyme, bay leaf, and crushed garlic cloves).
Once appropriate tenderness is achieved, the heat is turned up and the outside of the pork begins to crisp.
The result is very tender and juicy meat, which is then typically served with chopped coriander leaves and diced onion, salsa, guacamole, tortillas, and refried beans and a cold beer.
Las carnitas tradicionalmente se preparan cociendo a fuego lento carne de puerco en manteca en una olla de cobre hasta que están suaves.
Una vez que se derrite la manteca de cerdo se añade la carne de puerco y se sazona, usualmente con sal, chile, comino, orégano, mejorana, tomillo, hojas de laurel y ajo.
Cuando se obtiene la suavidad deseada se sube el fuego hasta que la parte externa del puerco comienza a dorarse.
El resultado es una carne muy suave y jugosa, que se sirve típicamente con cilantro y cebolla picados, salsa, guacamole, tortillas y frijoles refritos y una cerveza bien fría.
