When I lived in Virginia I'd take the overripe figs from our tree and put it with leftover carnitas in a bowl or wrap. The carnitas would have pickled onions to cut through the fat and the over ripe figs would cut through the acid of the onions---it all made sense when you ate it. We'd only do it with leftovers, but I imagine that would work with some sort of acid-y meat dish
