Preparation

Preparing the Al Pastor Filling

1. Marinate the Pork

In a large bowl, combine the pork shoulder, adobo sauce, garlic, onion, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Let it marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.

2. Cook the Pork

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the marinated pork until browned and cooked through, about 20-25 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly before shredding.

3. Add Pineapple and Cilantro

Mix in the diced pineapple and chopped cilantro into the shredded pork, stirring well to combine.

Assembling the Burrito

4. Warm the Tortillas

Heat the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until warm and pliable.

5. Fill the Burrito

Place a generous portion of the al pastor filling on each tortilla, followed by cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.

6. Roll the Burrito

Fold in the sides of the tortilla and roll tightly from the bottom up to enclose the filling.

7. Serve

Slice the burritos in half and serve with additional salsa or lime wedges on the side.
