Mexican-Style Pork Tacos (Tacos Al Pastor)
Here is what you'll need!
Homemade Al Pastor
Serves 10-12
INGREDIENTS
5 pounds boneless pork shoulder
3 tablespoons achiote paste
2 tablespoons guajillo chili powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon oregano
1 tablespoon cumin
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon pepper
¾ cup white vinegar
1 cup pineapple juice
1 pineapple, skinned and sliced into 1-inch rounds
1 thick wooden skewer, trimmed to the height of your oven
10-12 small corn tortillas
1 white onion, chopped finely
1 cup cilantro, chopped finely
1 cup salsa of your choice
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C.
Slice the pork shoulder into about 1-cm slices, then transfer to a large dish or bowl.
In a bowl, combine the achiote powder, chili powder, garlic powder, oregano, cumin, salt, pepper, vinegar, and pineapple juice, mashing and stirring until smooth with no lumps.
Pour the marinade over the pork, then toss the pork slices to make sure that they are all coated on all sides. Wrap the dish/bowl in cling film then marinate the pork for at least 2 hours, up to 3-5 days in the refrigerator.
On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil, place down a slice or two of the pineapple. Take a wooden skewer and push it directly in the middle of the pineapple.
Remove the pork from the fridge and push the slices through the skewer, layering one after the other until there is a 1-inch gap at the top. Push another pineapple slice on top.
Bake for about an hour and a half, until slightly charred on the outside and deep red.
Rest the meat for about 10 minutes, then carve off thin slices of the pork.
Slice off thin pieces of the roasted pineapples as well.
To assemble and serve, place some pork on the tortillas, followed by a few pieces of pineapple, a sprinkle of onions, a pinch of cilantro, then a small spoonful of the salsa.
Enjoy!

How to Make Tex-Mex Enchiladas (the Secret's In the Sauce) ????
The key to perfect Tex-Mex #GroundBeefEnchiladas is a combination of multiple factors! A good authentic #enchiladagravy, a flavorful #groundbeef filling, and, of course, melty cheese.
Today we’ll cover how to easily get a superior version of this #TexMex classic on your table, as well as how to make a perfect, foolproof enchilada gravy, the key to the most flavorful beef enchilada filling, plus, fun ideas for what to serve alongside your enchiladas!
How To Roll Enchiladas:
To make corn tortillas more pliable, wrap a stack of six corn tortillas in damp paper towels. Then, place them on a microwaveable plate and microwave for 1 minute. When you pull the tortillas out, they will be steaming (so be careful), but they will also be bendy and perfectly pliable for stuffing.
As much as we all want to slam each corn tortilla from edge-to-edge with beef and cheese, take care not to overstuff the enchiladas. This will make them difficult to roll closed, and it will likely spill out before you even make it to the casserole dish.
Roll one side the tortilla over the filling, and tuck the flap under the filling, tightly rolling it over at the same time.
Place seam-side down in casserole dish.

In today’s video, I’m going to show you some recipes and a framework that explain how to use corn tortillas when they are fresh, dry, and stale, so you’ll no longer look at that leftover stack with disdain, but instead, as a source of creative weeknight dinners.
