INGREDIENTS

• 3 guajillo chiles
• 1 ancho chile
• 1 c pineapple juice
• 1 tablespoon vinegar
• 1 teaspoon each: cinnamon, oregano, black pepper, salt
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 5 cloves garlic
• 1/2 teaspoon achiote (annatto) powder

Rehydrate the peppers in hot water to cover. Remove stems and seeds. Put them in a blender with everything else. Whizz it until it's smooth.

Pour over 2-3 pounds boneless pork and cook it one of three ways:

Crock pot: put the whole roast and marinade in there and cook on low for 8 hours until it's falling apart. Add some pineapple chunks in the last hour.

Grill: slice the meat thinly, marinate up to 4 hours and grill it with fresh pineapple spears.

Bake: marinate whole roast up to 24 hours and roast at 350 degrees F, covered, until tender. Shred it, add pineapple chunks and stick it under the broiler for a few minutes to crispy it up.

  • @mixwell1983 Wow. You totally failed at not being a dick. Congratulations.

    P.S. Please double-check your work in the future. Typos are for dicks.

  • @kcl060 You're right! I will stop trying. The Spanish-speaking patients that I see every day will just have to learn English. Thanks for the advice!
