TACOS AL PASTOR
Making authentic Tacos al Pastor is near impossible for the home cook - the original requires perfectly spiced pork cooked on a rotisserie. I suppose if you have one of those barbecue rotisseries you could give it a shot but here's a little easier version from the terrific Nuevo Tex-Mex book by David Garrido and Robb Walsh to try at home before you go whole hog into the BBQ accessories.

  • Garlic, 1/4 cup granulated
  • Cider Vinegar, 1 tbsp
  • Oregano, 1 tsp
  • Chile Powder, 1 tsp
  • Black Pepper, 1 tsp
  • Cumin, 1/2 tsp
  • Salt, 1/2 tsp
  • Orange Juice, 2 cups
  • Achiote Paste, 1 1/2 tbsp
  • Pork Loin, 2 lb boneless thinly sliced
  • Pineapple, 1/2 cut in long thin strips
  • Corn Tortillas, 12 warmed
  • Onion, 1 finely chopped
  • Cilantro, 1 bunch fresh chopped
  • Picante Sauce
In a medium-sized bowl combing the garlic, vinegar, oregano, guajillo chile powder, black pepper, cumin, salt to taste, orange juice, and achiote paste. Add the pork slices and turn to coat both sides. Marinate for at least 1 hour and not more than 3 hours. Heat the grill. Place the meat over a hot fire and cook, turning once and basting with any leftover marinade during cooking, until crisp. At the same time grill the pineapple strips, turning as needed, until lightly browned. Both the pork and pineapple should take no longer than about 5 minutes. To assemble chop the grilled pork into 1/4-inch pieces. Cut the pineapple into 1/2-inch pieces. Place the pork on the warmed toritillas and top with the onion, cilantro, and pineapple pieces. Serve the Picante Suace on the side.

Makes 12 tacos.
