Tried the Hey Grill Hey Al Pastor yesterday. Wasn't too impressed. I think next time I'll use this marinade a rub and smoke the butt to normal pulling temp.
The pineapple salsa, however, was amazing.
Tonight we are going to have the leftover pork over rice with the salsa as a “bowl” so we’ll see how that goes.

Main Thing that I didn't like was that I expected more flavor from the marinade. I only marinated it 4 hours but don't think that would change much even with a longer soak.
The second, perhaps obvious, thing is that the marinade between thenflapscant get crisp so I just kinda stays... Moist.
My understanding of a real al pastor is that it's like gyro or shwarma meat in that it stays on the spit and you serve the crispy bits. I saw one guy do it on a gas grill rotisserie and I may try that at some point in the future.

What's everybody got planned for cooking this long weekend?
We are having people over on Sunday so ill probably just do a butt or two. Gonna do another batch of the salsa on Monday for sure too.
Got a new Napoleon propane grill that I have to assemble but not sure it's gonna get used for anything!

Out of town this past weekend. Our hosts had a BBQ on Sunday that was nice... more pool and drinks than food.
Arrived home just after noon yesterday and felt like cooking, so we went to the supermarket and found it had been ravaged by locusts.
Best we could do was some roasted Brussels Sprouts with bacon, garlic and balsamic vinegar with burgers. Seasoned the 7oz patties of 80/20 Chuck with some mandolin-sliced onions (see through thin), fresh grated garlic, chopped jalapenos (pickled, from a jar), salt and pepper.
Instead of grilling, I pan-fried the leftover bacon in a cast iron pan (on the grill side burner, so, qualifies for this thread... ), then pan-fried the burgers in the bacon fat. Melted some Boar's head American on top and served on toasted Dave's buns with bacon, dill pickle slices, red onion, brown mustard and spicy ketchup.
Yes... it was amazing.

Couple pork shoulders. Trying Royal Oak briquettes I picked up at Home depot. I like it when they look like chunks of a meteorite. I really dislike my pellet smoker. Hardly any smoke flavor at all. My buddy thought his was the best thing ever till he tried charcoal smoked now hes looking at charcoal smokers.

Thanks!
First time I’ve actually used the counter for prep like that. I guess after having the bbq in the driveway for so many years I just got in the habit of always bringing everything inside.
When I did the pork belly I made a conscious effort to do all the steps outside, and it turns out that carrying honey, a stick of butter, and a jar of bbq sauce out to the tiki is WAY easier than carrying two trays of hot meat inside!
Only downside to all this is that it’s across the patio from the house, so everything has to be carried back and forth a ways and there’s no water in the tiki. Next house will have an attached patio with an outdoor cooking space right outside the kitchen.
