Holy thread bump!  And no new pics.  WTF??
 
I unearthed it on the night I found buddy's taco sauce ...
 
I remembered that Booma and Scovie had talked mole and I was revealing some awesome stuff from a little while earlier than a lot of the people participating nowadays were around ...
 
Was the same night I pulled forward my canned tuna po boy ... I was bored and didn't know where to post having EOL'd my "creed" thread, LOL ....
 
 
 
Ironically, THP had come down on named threads for being somewhat anti-category ... and he's riding his broom again, today ... haha.
 
Not really anti-category, more "my own flog." Like I said when the time comes the new blog system will take care of this issue and not to change anything now so stop causing drama. Be more like Tom!!!
 
I'm accepting responsibility for having brought it back w/o new content? We're all waiting for our flog's ...
 
The only person creating drama today ...
 
Oh by named you mean authored I thought you meant like the Mexican one. Named foods. I gotcha. I'm not worried about those, those are popular here and people like them.

The user-centric flog/blog threads or area will be a great solution.
 
I like to be able to share more w/ people here than just the spicy stuff, but I also understand that it's somewhat diluting in a sense, and that there are folks who come here and don't want to wade through the non-spicinext to find their spicinext.
 
It's all good.

Why does the pork look like a side order? You really like lima beans! (Or whatever bean that is.)
 
Looks awesome. 
 
Nice looking Cochinita, lots of anchiote. Did it marinade in any citrus juices or anything? Curious on the process you used.

I tried to follow this lovely lass' video. Im not great with spanish, but i think for the most part i understood what see was doing.
 
The sauce was 150g achiote paste, 1 cup sour orange juice (i used 50/50 mix of regular orange and lemon), nine cloves of garlic, 1/2 white onion, s&p.
 
I dont have a pressure cooker so i popped my pot into the oven, lid on, for 2 hours at 160C.

haha i do love my beans beans the musical fruit.
 
I really have nothing to compare how close the final results were.... ive never eaten the dish before. The achiote was quite rich so a little pork went a long way. If i can get my hands on some anatto seeds i may go that route next time.
