Going to be attempting this, this weekend.
As I've never had tacos al pastor before, I have absolutely no idea what to expect.
https://www.seriouseats.com/taco…
- Well, if the marinade is anything to go on, this might just be one of the best things I've ever eaten. Holy fucking shit, that's good!Continuity
- How much time did it take?milfhunter
- Smart to use the pineapple during the indirect grilling. Instead, Let's pull our dinero and buy a spit. Community spit use by sign-up listmisterhow
- @milfhunter Not an appreciably long time, tbh. One thing I did do differently than Kenji is pop my pork in the frezer for about an hour to firm up ...Continuity
- ... which allowed me to slice it to about 3-4 mm without the need to pound it out like he does. So, that was actually a time-saver. Otherwise, the marinade ...Continuity
- ... was done quickly, and the assembly in the pan took me about what ... 20 minutes, give or take? So now it's in the fridge for the overnight cure before ...Continuity
- ... roasting.Continuity
- 2 tortillas—that's when you know it's legitkaiyohtee

So they have egg-flavoured crisps in Spain.
- WANT.Continuity
- Incidentally, Nairn ... about those jamón crisps ...
:)Continuity - Yes, I know - I tried to find some for you over there as I figured it'd be easier to mailfrom Spain, but the Posh Local Supermarket didn't have them :(Nairn
- Oh no!! :(Continuity
- Back to Plan A, but this time not eating them... .Nairn
- Ha!Continuity
- OBBTKN2
Patatas Pijo, those are nice too, but a bit oily...
- God damn.
Your crisp flavours in Spain are way more interesting than in Germany.Continuity - I like this brand a lot, there're a pair or three flavours more... Tasty!OBBTKN
- Sigh.
I need to move to Spain.Continuity - I had the lemon and pepper ones. Not as good as Italian San Carlo lime and pink pepper equivalent, and they rely on MSG. Not bad yhoughNairn
- God damn.

Well, look: I've never had tacos al pastor before — much less the real deal from Mexico City — so it's not like I have anything to compare my results with.
But, this recipe from Serious Eats is astonishing. It's so, so, so delicious. Will absolutely make again, and it's 1000% worth the time it took.
(Garnished with a bit of salsa verde, onions, coriander, and pineapple roasted in the pork fat.)
- Looks great!!!
Fax some over.palimpsest - Dear God.Nairn
- congrats, that looks amazing. and it also looks more convoluted than Pango's noodle soup. Did you do the whole circle grill charcoal thing? did it take 11 hrs?_niko
- oh never mind I see you can do it in the over as well through probably won't get that nice charcoal flavour, damn now I have to try this_niko
- Looks very good! Serious eats is a great site. Did you make or buy the tacos?MrT
- Want!! Looks fantastic. Bookmarked the Serious Eats website. Thanks!Green_Pork
- Last time I followed a recipe I used my dirty socks as oven mittens and stepped on a tomatodrgs
- @niko Yeah, I used the oven method. It was one of my criteria when I was researching recipes and methods, cos I'm not allowed to cook with fire on my balcony.Continuity
- @MrT Bought them ... one day I'll try making my own, but this time, I wasn't in the mood. Also, I haven't got a tortille press (yet).Continuity
- not a big fan of warm fruits on my food but you are selling it like i should give it a shot.milfhunter
- ^ I'm normally not, either, but the pineapple is an absolute must. Sooooo good!Continuity
- Looks just like what you get in Mexico.monospaced
- This is cultural appropriation and not allowed.shapesalad
- Excellent, saw the recipe posted last week, great follow through ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐whatthefunk

- My fav kind of street taco here in LA. You'll find family vans loaded up to set up and cook on the sidewalks like little pop ups without the food truck.shellie
- *warm/char tortillas on the hob flametbgoodwillie
- I'd heartily recommend getting a press, esp. as you clearly enjoy putting in the effort : ) I made your Mexicana recipe from a few pages back, + tortillas...MrT
- It was delicious and has gone in the sacred recipe binder! Soz for shitpic, I was a bit d-runk. https://jmp.sh/nWMM7…MrT
- Damn, Mr T. Looking at your tortillas in that pic, you've sold me on a press!Continuity
- Thanks, do it! MrsT is GF so they get made a lot. Delicious charred edges and they stay warm forever under a cloth. The first one with just lime + salt = joy.MrT
- Do you use the white or yellow masa harina?Continuity
- Nice work!canoe
- Do you cook often from Serious Eats? Did you compare it to Bayless?canoe
- I didn't compare to Bayless, though I should. I understand he did for Mexican food in the US what Ramen_Lord (Reddit) and Ivan Orkin did for ramen.Continuity
- I use both, this one currently. We don't get the range in Aus so I use what I can. https://cdn11.bigcom…MrT
- https://cdn11.bigcom…MrT
- Also this but in date : ) https://internationa…MrT
- Ahaaaa. Lista is white, Harina is yellow. I'm going to try with Lista, first.Continuity
- These are a staple! Made ‘em with grilled portabello strips and cotija last timescarabin
- I fucking love cotija cheese. Texture of cheese curd for poutine, with an awesome salty funk.Continuity
- Looks great!!!

im telling you this is god food
- looks like turd....
what is it?pango - Firkandel!Continuity
- shit that look good.utopian
- @cont yes!milfhunter
- Frikandel speciaalmilfhunter
- so it's like a hot dog but there's no bun and the sausage is sliced open and filled with toppings instead?BuddhaHat
- ^ fried instead of heated in hot waterSimonFFM
- yup can confirm. I eat one of these regularlyCalderone2000
- @Buddha its indeed fried meat. The sauce is curry and mayo topped with raw unions.milfhunter
- I like to alternate this with a Dutch "berenhap" with peanut sauce.stewart
- I can't even to count the number of non-speciaal Frikandel I'd gotten out of a Febo when I was living in Amsterdam. Usually late at night. And drunk.Continuity
- @cont agreed. perfect drunk foodmilfhunter
- What I *didn't* know up until about an hour ago is that the sausage itself is normally made from both half-om-half gehakt and chicken. Interesting.Continuity
- Side note to my side note: the German term for 'half-om-half' is not nearly as interesting: Gemischtes hack. Woo-hoo.Continuity
- oh man I found a place in Toronto, not too far from me going to to first chance I get https://tinyurl.com/…
anything else I should try?_niko - ^ Beef bitterballen. I say again: BEEF BITTERBALLEN. I'm also partial to Snert.Continuity
- @continuity lol those funny germans. i knew it was some sort of mixed meats but never knew it was partly chicken!milfhunter
- @niko Those prices are insane for junkfood. Anyway, you should try the kapsalon as well!milfhunter
- @niko and poffertjes as desert :)milfhunter
- @niko just checked out the pictures on google reviews. Would stick with the bitterballen or kroket together with patatje speciaal.milfhunter
- cheers guys I thought they might be on the pricey end but not as pricey as a flight to the Netherlands ;)_niko
- looks like turd....

Black Garlic Chorizo. Si!
- Tell me moreContinuity
- From León? If so... Yeah!!OBBTKN
- Just some presumably commercial stuff, that weirdly doesn't have much on the internet about it. I just saw it, bought it, nibbled it, loved it. So too the kid,Nairn
- Googling for it, I now see other brands I want to try even more... Need to find a decent online spanish UK distributor :)Nairn

Think I'm going to try a homespun variant on this, but no fucking lamb, no fucking reliance on nutmeg only.
I'm kind of thinking that a pork and chicken mince might work here, in a shitload of herbs and spices?
- What have you got against lamb?BuddhaHat
- I lived next to a lamb farm as a kid, and to me the smelltaste is just like sheep shit. Also, my partner doesn't like it.Nairn
- Yeesh settle down I didn't ask for your life story :P just kidding that makes sense.BuddhaHat
- Pork in an Egyptian dish. Oh, no ... flolContinuity
- If it wasn't for such daring cross-cultural pollination, I'd not have my beloved pinchos morunos...Nairn
- Oh. Well, yeah, fair point, that.Continuity
- Wait until you smell pig shit and chicken poop...shapesalad
- I've smelt both, but neither meat tastes of it.Nairn
- You said no fucking lamb like it's the merlot of meats :-)
https://www.youtube.…canoe - I’ve never had lamb that tasted like shit or a farm. Lol.monospaced
- haha, I need to watch that again - love that flick. Although it hits a little close to home sometimes...Nairn
- which part(s)?canoe
- Well, just aspects of the two main characters and their occasionally poor interaction with reality.Nairn
- Having watched this video, and also compared with other recipes and methods online, I've decided I need this. Badly.Continuity
- Great movie.canoe

- Use beef fat. DO NOT USE Vegetable oils.shapesalad
- Beef fat? Fucking DUCK fat my love.canoe
- I'm with shape, classic UK chippie style. Duck's nice but a deep fryer full is a tad excessive.MrT
- Traditionally, Belgian chips are fried in tallow. Very good stuff.
But, if you like to use vegetable oils, by all means do so. Ignore shape.Continuity

What recipe/dish do you love to cook, love to eat?
And, do any of you write your own recipes?
I started a thread called Creative Kitchen where I was attempting for foodies that know how to cook to buy the same ingredients, try something new and learn throughout the process. We should get that going - every other week?
- Long list here... Paellas, meat, fish and vegetables in bbq or parrilla the most. But it is difficult to choose a favorite recipe or ingredient!OBBTKN
- No favorite recipe here, when I was a vegetarian I loved vegetarian English breakfast as lunch. And love vegan feijoada both the Portuguese and Brazilian onesoey_oey
- I rarely use a recipe unless there's someone invited for dinner, but I can share some in that thread, like asparagus soup topped with pistachios...oey_oey
- yumcanoe
- Oh fuck, where do I start. Tacos of all sorts, ramen of all sorts, boeuf bourguignon, carbonara, tortilla de patatas, spaghetti aglio e olio, the list goes on.Continuity
- I’m down if it’s not meat-centric every timescarabin
- Actually scratch that, i can just fashion a veg analogue for any meat ingredientsscarabin
- That's cool you get a veg box, we're doing that this summer also. We've had them before and you're right, challenging, and educational.canoe

Beautiful day, sunny, but only 21°C.
Honey, what if I fire up the grill and we have something grilled for dinner?
Perfect.
I've bought half a dozen leeks, two bell peppers, pork chops and short ribs, plus a bottle of cider.
The leek and roasted pepper salad is incredible, with a little vinaigrette (those who haven't tried it, make them one day, even if it's baked).
Half is left over.
Now to sleep :)
- Beef short ribs?
Gotta smoke those low and slow, my man!
But my god, they're so good after.Continuity

Some shots found on my phone. Mostly meal prep stuff i took to work.
I like techniques rather than recipes, so i can make up stuff on the spot. I get a veggie box delivered and sometimes some of the stuff just stumps me. It pays to be flexible.
Sorry in advance to photo guys, i never meant these for viewing :)

- All look super tasty. Get what you mean about learning processes. I’m the same. Like, ‘why is that made that way?’. Then see if I can make it my own way.Ianbolton
