  • You’ve seen the shawarma-like vertical spit for tacos al pastor: a beautiful cone of pork, charred with a gas or charcoal flame, and topped with a dripping pineapple…there’s really nothing that compares to it!
    Except, maybe this recipe. While nothing will ever replace the original, at home you can get pretty close to that classic al pastor flavor you love (and without all the equipment). See my recipe below!

    Mr. Bayless is seriously the OG of mexican cusine if u don't know now u do. I learned from his recipes over 20yrs ago.
    He always pernounces mexican words perfectly better than most on YT

      He's an excellent teacher too! Not only does he bring experience to the table, but he also gives us tidbits of history behind the ingredients he uses. Makes for an even BETTER cuisine experience!
      I learned many cooking tricks by watching my Mexican mama cook for us, but with Rick's footnotes, now I realize how savvy mama really was at cooking. She made EVERYTHING taste so good!!
      Thank you Rick for showing us how much you love Mexican food. It really is Feasts for Gods.

      Yes. He sticks to the authentic recipe ingredients, unlike other RUclips cooks who create their own variations. Big difference between southwestern or tex-mex cuisine compared to the real Mexican style plates. Rick does it the right way. In his old tv show he even use to travel to the places where the food and ingredients originated from. This respected chef is the real deal when it comes to authentic Mexican food. And he makes it look sooo easy!
      I swear I can smell his cooking when I watch! Lol.

  • @pixelcultmedia4252
    @pixelcultmedia4252 Год назад +26

    I'm so stoked that your recipe is close to the one I researched and made. I think the only difference was that I use some Coca-Cola in the rehydrating liquid for the chiles. I read that some taquerias in Baja do that.
    One purchasing tip is that you can frequently find thin-cut pork shoulder in Asian markets. It's typically prepared for Shabu Shabu, but it works great for tacos and its thinness gives more surface area for marinade and caramelization.

    Just made this up in Lake Forest, Rick. Didnt get the Achiote but got everything else, the smell on the marinade was so strong during cooking I thought this was going to be inedible. Get it on a warm tortilla with diced white onion and your tomatillo salsa, i put shredded mexican blend cheese because im in the midwest - and it was heaven. Tender meet, the flavor was bright and delicious without being overpowering as I feared during cooking. Wonderful charred bits to go along with bursts of sweetness from the grilled pineapple - just amazing.

    the addition of pineapple to the adobo is a power move, not only does it lend flavor, but the bromelain enzyme in it is a great tenderizer as well. This is the best cooking channel on the 'Tube, cheers Chef!

    Quick note: I use a piece of rug pad to hold my cutting board in place.
    Good things about it are...
    1. you can cut it to exactly the same size as the board
    2. it doesn't take an extra step to take a piece of paper and moisten it
    3. it doesn't waste paper
    4. since it's rubber/plastic, it's easy to clean

    • @kurtpenner2362
      @kurtpenner2362 Год назад +2

      For me the pineapple or pineapple juice breaks down the meat surface into a gross mealy texture. This gets worse the longer it sits in the marinade. I presume this is from the bromelain enzyme in the juice. However, if I boil the juice, or the entire marinade before using it, this does not occur. I presume the enzyme denatures and deactivates in the heat. But all the yummy pineapple juice flavour remains. Works for me.

    • @kurtpenner2362
      @kurtpenner2362 Год назад +2

      @ Some people use canned pineapples and canned pineapple juice. I think this would avoid the problem, since they cans are heated up in the canning process, deactivating the enzyme. But fresh is better IF you can get it and IF you know about this enzyme issue.

    There's even a two L version such as chilli and chillies.

    Dear Rick (years of admiring you , making and understanding the Mexican cuisine . ) I am Mexican , an MD, and Like to cook. So I am just an cooking aficionado . I know we use a lot of "vegetable" oil in mexican cooking, but to my present knowledge, is the worst oil we can eat as humans, it is actually poisonous ! And it is driving a lot of cronic diseases. In my house we stop using it. I will make your recipe of tacos al Pastor, but I will be using lard, and in other recipes , when feasible; beef talow, butter, olive oil, avocado oil.
