nicely done!https://youtu.be/LqH2P2V1gpE
Happy Cinco de Mayo!
I've made this recipe about a dozen times, and I've honestly never had better pork tacos. EVER. Malcom Reed absolutely nailed it. I highly, HIGHLY recommend making this recipe!
Going to a party at my buddy's house later on today, and everyone begged me to make this again (I made it last year too). 30lbs of meat, hahaha! Two 9lb pork shoulders, and two 6lb whole chickens
(this pic is from last year. I was too lazy to stack everything for a photo shoot again this time, lol)
The rub down
Marinated overnight in OJ with oranges, limes, onions, garlic, (canned) chipotles, etc.
Final coats of spices and rubs. Salt, pepper, garlic, Ancho and chipotle powder, cumin, and a little cinnamon
Put the pork on the smoker (275*) at 5am. Gonna throw the chicken on around noon. I'll try to get some plated pics later, but no promises
Like I said, I'm bringing this to somebody else's house. It was hectic last year, and I was cocked by then 
I'll try to remember to post some pics once I start the braising process

I like that chipolte sour cream thing, it was a hit here too!
You need a new lime slicer

I saw those things too.Wow, thanks for the compliments, everybody!
And, for the record, I didn't slice those limes
Reggie, you have a place to stay here any time you're in the area, bud!
Nah, in all seriousness, almost everything I know about good BBQ, I learned from watching Malcom Reed. His videos and recipes are always great. I should also mention that I should thank the member "Downriver" for pointing me to Malcom's channel. Forever indebted to you, Rick!
