Taco De Al Pastor Ingredients
Method
Preparation Directions
- 1
Marinate the Pork
In a blender, combine the guajillo chilies, ancho chilies, garlic, cumin, oregano, pineapple juice, lime juice, and salt. Blend until smooth. Pour the marinade over the pork shoulder in a large bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.

Prepare Pineapple
While the pork is roasting, grill the pineapple slices on a grill or stovetop grill pan until charred and caramelized, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove from heat and chop into small pieces.

Assemble the Tacos
Once the pork is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes. Shred the pork using two forks. Warm the corn tortillas on a skillet. To assemble, place a generous amount of shredded pork on each tortilla, top with diced white onion, grilled pineapple, and chopped cilantro.
