I need to eat pork belly so I know what to say ...
 
But, it's pork fat, so I think I can say FUCK YEAH regardless and be safe ...

Almost the same taco as last time.  Same flavours but more contrasting textures.
 
Slow cooked pork belly in chicken stock with lime zest and garlic for 2 hours.  Had the finished stock as soup with some chilli and lime juice. 
Fried the pork belly in its own fat until really crispy.
 
Coriander (cilantro), chunky guac (avacado, lime juice sea salt and cracked black pepper), pork belly, hot taco sauce and finely diced red onion on a mini white corn tortilla.

 
I had 4 of these for brunch.
 

 
A pork belly taco.
 
Your previous post's were all 'bidness.
 
Now you're just showing off.
 
I love your kung fu.
 
And now I must find me some pork belly and commit heinous crimes against it.
 
All 'cuz of DTS.
 
 
That stinkin' Kiwi.

Thanks. Nothing special. It had nice balance flavors. I wish I had a deep fryer with me. Some nice crispy Carnitas would be great. Maybe some fish tacos. Damn I'm getting hungry again. Sorry about the pics. Cell phone.

Nice ... that looks like a nice fry job, and appealing colors ...
Are those poppy seeds or black pepper specks in the tortilla, or bit of corn, or ? ...

Nice job on the fried clams.  It's nice to see that you take advantage of your location with all the fresh seafood and produce.

 

[FreeportBum]

Thanks I have a recreational clamming license. They cost $15 and you can dig 1 peck per tide which is 12-14lbs.

GM those wraps are only 80 calories full size and I cut about half away, makes an excellent vessel for face stuff

I just love a good wrap!  Nice on the razor clams too!

Never had the pleasure, but one day...

Clam tacos good.
 
Clam wraps bad.
 
Never heard of no stinkin' clam wraps.
 
Maybe on planet Clamydia they have those 'thangs.
 
I 'member we'd drive down to Clam Gulch from Anchorage and dig buckets of razors.
 
Purged in seawater and corn meal for a day and then cleaned and deep fried.
 
Those made awesome clam tacos.

 

[FreeportBum]

I've been lucky and never met a clam I didn't like
