Pork in adobo sauce

rex clingan

Stopped in to a new super mercado and picked up some pork marinated in adobo. About $3/lb, 6"x10"x1/4" slices from a shoulder. Grilled it kinda medium, and then but it into strips and made fajitas with red bell pepper and onion in the discada deglazed with a little rum (would have preferred beer, but the keg was too far away. Garnished with some avocado and Bufalo Jalapeno sauce, served on corn tortillas shallow fried in olive oil on the discada.[p]These tacos were a thing of beauty.

rexmo,
Good stuff, I agree. You can buy it from your local spice house or Penzey's makes a great adobo seasoning. (www.penzeys.com) I like adobo for leftover pork and chicken. I re-heat meat with adobo and cummin, salt, peanut oil and a little water to keep the meat moist. Fantastic for tacos and burritos.

ClayQ,[p]It felt like it was missing cumin. Needed a little more heat as well.
