Episode 2 (Part 1): Puerco Pibil

[realbeereels]

4:28 he must've practiced dropping the butt onto the cutting board... this guy watched r. rodriguez's and tried to copy it...

[angmp3]

watch the ten minute cooking school by Robert Rodriguez! FAR BETTER!!!

This guy here is a poser!!

cant even hear him talk over the cheap mexican music!

[mudwhistleband]

i would suggest 1 1/4 tsp of cumin, i made one time and the cumin was a little TOO strong! i cut down on the cumin to 1 1/4 tsp and it did the trick!

[towelboy12]

If you bought a cut of pork butt (shoulder) with bone, look for pork picnic or carnitas pork. It's pretty much the same thing (i.e. fatty!).

[Funkmasterizzy]

It shouldn't matter. After you cook it the bone should seperate from the meat clean and the meat around it will fall apart into chunks. Mine did. But I also cooked mine in a crock pot which takes longer. Lots more moisture escapes from the leaves or foil or bag in the oven and you get a gravy-ish liquid. In a crock pot you get much more liquid. But this is a very versitile meat recipe and you can use leftovers for killer enchiladas or as a filler for tamales.

[RodPex]

this is not puerco pibil I Dont know what the fuck is this guy cooking, puerco pibil is made with banana leaf, and cook on an oven, and mexican plates thay never go whith tequila, tequila is fron the north puierco pibil is from the south of mexico

You forgot to list the peppercorns on the info for the video to the right. Schmuck!

[ChefStedman]

Yeah, you're right... must have been all that tequila!

[kryptonitebullet179]

That's a lot of tequila for a skinny white boy to ingest...

Ten Minute Cooking School Is The Shiznit!

[ChefStedman]

You have to understand that no recipe is written in stone. That's the beauty of cooking. Anyone can change any recipe to better suit their individual tastes. If you'd like to change the recipe, by all means, feel free to do so.

[dafunnylilaznguy]

NICE!

[LordeHellig]

Same as Tabasco. I have made this several times now, and 5 habaneros is waaaay too much.

[ChefStedman]

Some people like it spicy!

[tabascoman77]

Hey, Stedman...

I have made this dish several times and (if you're following Robert Rodriguez's recipe) you should probably correct the dish recipe:

8 All-Spice (not 1 Tbsp.)

2 to 3 Habanero peppers. 5 of those suckers make the dish way too hot to taste. By the way, those didn't look like Habaneros.

The 8 cloves of minced garlic comes out to 1/3 cup of garlic if you want to measure.

All the lemons approximately equal 1 whole up lemon juice.

You can use all foil instead of banana leaves.

[lordpookus]

rodriguez uses both foil AND bannana leaves. 8 cloves of garlic doesn't always come to 1/3 of a cup. cloves vary in size...

also you could probably fit 8 all-spice on one table spoon...

ps. the dish can vary from person to person.

the version rodriguez made is the one he has either been taught or discovered on his own..

[astayonix]

That's exactly what I was thinking in this guy's preperation: He must have watched Rordriguez's version and just decided to make his own video using that exact same recipie.

[emilyeherbert]

Holy crap, Chef Stedman! You seeded and minced habaneros with your bare hands. And you didn't die. Whew! My hands would have burned so bad that I would have cut them off. (Nice knife work, by the way. You're quite good with your hands.)
