Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 pounds pork shoulder, not too lean, in thin 1/2-inch strips or cubes
Salt
pepper
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 1/2 teaspoons ground guajillo, ancho or other medium-hot red chile
1 teaspoon toasted, coarsely ground cumin
3 tablespoons vegetable oil or good-quality lard
2 dozen small corn tortillas, ideally 4 1/2 inches, for serving
Tomatillo salsa, for serving
Salsa cruda, for serving
Radishes, trimmed, for serving
Cilantro sprigs, for serving

Steps:

  • Season the pork generously with salt and pepper. Add the garlic, chile powder and cumin, and mix well, massaging the seasoning into the meat with fingers. Let the meat marinate for at least an hour, or refrigerate overnight.
  • Heat the oil in a wide cast iron skillet over medium heat. When the oil looks wavy, add the meat and let it sizzle, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Turn off the heat and keep meat warm.
  • Heat the tortillas on an ungreased hot griddle or cast iron pan. Turn them once or twice until hot and slightly puffed. As they come off the griddle, stack them on a cloth napkin to steam, with another napkin on top.
  • To assemble the tacos, stack 2 hot tortillas on a plate. Spoon on a little sizzled pork, then top with a spoonful of tomatillo salsa and another of salsa cruda. Garnish with radishes and cilantro sprigs. Serve and eat immediately.

"PLASTERED" PORK TACOS WITH APPLE-JALAPENO SALSA



I was in the mood for some pork tacos, but I was looking for a bit of a change of pace from the normal carnitas-style I would usually make, which led to this wild and crazy experiment. The "plaster" coating traps all the moisture and flavor of the pork in while it bakes, creating the best pork taco I've had in a while.

Time 12h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 (3 1/2) pound bone-in pork shoulder roast
2 tablespoons minced fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
½ cup kosher salt
1 large egg white
¾ cup water, or more as needed
2 cups finely diced Honeycrisp apple
⅔ cup finely diced white onion
½ cup seeded and finely diced jalapeno pepper
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
2 limes, juiced, or to taste
2 pinches cayenne pepper
12 flour tortillas, warmed
2 limes, cut into wedges, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Season pork all over with rosemary and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Stir flour, salt, egg white, and water together in a large bowl until very smooth. Adjust with more flour it's too runny. Add pork shoulder and coat thoroughly.
  • Spread a few spoons of excess "plaster" into a baking dish or pan. Add, fat-side up. Use a spoon to re-apply plaster to any spots that need it, as well as to the top.
  • Roast in the center of the preheated oven until the surface is dry and hard and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 185 degrees F (85 degrees C), about 3 1/2 hours.
  • Let cool for 15 minutes to 1 hour. Break pork up into big chunks and transfer to plate. Add some of the pan juices that accumulated at the bottom of the pan. Cover with plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
  • Combine apple, onion, jalapeno, cilantro, salt, lime juice, and cayenne in a bowl for salsa.
  • Slice chilled pork into strips and then cut into 1/2-inch cubes.
  • Heat a dry, nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Brown pork in the pan, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve pork on warm tortillas with the salsa and lime wedges.
