Anyone know how to make tacos el pastor?
Yes--here's the recipe I came up with based on Coyote Cafe in Santa Fe (which is very good).
Pineapple salsa
1 Pineapple, peeled, cored, and diced small
1/4 medium red onion, diced small
1 hot pepper of your choice seeded and diced small (I like a habanero here--wear gloves when cutting; use jalapenos if you don't want that much heat)
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
Tacos
~1# boneless pork loin chops
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4-1/2 tsp ground cayenne pepper
salt & pepper to taste
Rub the pork with the spices then either pan fry or grill (best option with enough time; obviously over wood/charcoal

). About 5-7 minutes per side depending on how thick your pork chops are and how well done you like your pork.
Dice the pork when it's done; serve with the salsa, crumbled queso fresco, chopped cilantro, and corn tortillas.

now if someone could get my wife to cook id be all set
I taught myself to cook because I like to eat. And--when you're grilling or BBQ'ing--it's a great excuse to drink more beer.
