hehe...mrs. blues keeps me honest on the posting. I had 2 reasons for making them. Firstly, it's a Tex-Mex tradition to have tamales Christmas eve and second....mrs. blues loves them looooong time.
Speaking of pineapple.....might be time for a little taco's pastor next week! Another mrs. blues favorite.
Ah yes! The best taco! Do you really make those? Do you carve pork and pineapple off a spit? Or do you improvise?

I cheat. I thin slice tenderloin or chops, sear it on high, then cover and slow it down. Then I'll add chopped pineapple and some juice and reduce until its nice and caramelized. Then hit it with some cumin. If I'm the only one eating it, it also gets cilantro, diced onion, and chiles too. Absolutely has to go a tortilla, flour or corn, both good....and oh yeah...lots of limes.
Sounds good. Hope you make 'em and post pics.

A space heater with a spit motor for $200? I like the concept but not for that money. Also for pastor the spit needs to be verticle. That's all I need.....another specialty cooking wham wham.
Thats it dammit! Tex-Mex Drunken Chef Taco's Pastor this weekend!
