Pork Al Pastor
Bring bold Mexican flavors into your home using my pork al pastor recipe. It’s made with blackened pineapples and marinated pork that’s grilled until it’s fall-apart tender. Watch the video below to see how I make it in my kitchen!
Ingredients
Instructions
In a blender, add pineapple juice, vinegar, lime juice, onion, garlic, cumin, oregano, cinnamon, salt, pepper, achiote paste, and Guajillo chili powder. Blend everything together.
Pour the marinade over the pork and mix together. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes or up to 4 hours. If chilling for 4 hours, remove the meat from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking.
Preheat the grill to medium-high. Grill the pork for 7-8 minutes per side until slightly charred. Grill the pineapples afterward until lightly charred on both sides and set aside.
Let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing into bite pieces.
Serve the pork al pastor on tacos with sliced grilled pineapples, red onion, avocado, fresh cilantro, and lime.
