Tacos Al Pastor

I’m continuing my Mexican kick this week with another tasty recipe – this time it’s Pork Tacos Al Pastor on the spit.

You’ll need:

2-3kg of pork shoulder or pork loin cut into thin (3mm thick) slices

For the Marinade:

• 4 Guajillo Chile boiled, de-seeded, and cleaned.
• 1 Ancho Chile boiled, de-seeded, and cleaned.
• 4 cloves of garlic
• 1/2 onion
• 1/2 cup of orange juice
• 1  cup of pineapple juice-fresh is better
• 1 Tablespoon of Oregano
• 1 Tablespoon of Butcher BBQ Grill Rub
• 1 Tablespoon of Pepper
• 1 Tablespoon of Cumin
• 1-2 Tablespoons of Paprika
• 1-2 Tablespoons of Salt

Mix all marinade ingredients in a container large enough to hold the marinade and the pork. Let the pork marinade in the fridge for 4hrs before placing on the spit between Gyro Disks. I cook this over BB Mesquite for that authentic Mexican Flavour.

Serve with salsa and tortillas!
