Pork al Pastor

Method

Pork al Pastor

  1. 1

    Marinade the Pork

    In a large bowl, combine pineapple juice, white vinegar, minced garlic, oregano, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

    In a medium bowl, combine diced pineapple, chopped red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Mix well.
