Made some al pastor tacos today. Sliced up a pork butt and marinated overnight in an adobo sauce. On the egg at 375 for about two and a half hours. Served with pickled red onions, green chili and avocado crema and homemade corn tortillas.

Outstanding!
Did you trim off the crispy bits as it cooked, and return it to the Egg? Or slice it all up at once? I'd really like to try this.___________"When small men begin to cast big shadows, it means that the sun is about to set."

No but I think you can probably do that. I just covered it in foil for the first half of the cook so the outside didn’t get too done.Botch said:Outstanding!

That looks fantastic! For the last 2 years I have been on an Al Pastor quest. Whenever it’s on the menu, I order it. Some good, so not so much, but this looks great! Inspired to try it myself, thank you!

Love me some al pastor, I get it every time at the hole in the wall taquerias we frequent here in So Cal. Yours looks great!I see you had the pineapple on the bottom of all the meat, did you also have pineapple slices in between the pork?

Yeah i put 3-4 cubes of pineapple equally spaced between layers of pork. Recipe I saw said to do that to allow air flow between the layers and allow the inside to cook more evenly.Cornholio said:Love me some al pastor, I get it every time at the hole in the wall taquerias we frequent here in So Cal.
