Ingredients

  • 2 pounds pork shoulder, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup pineapple juice
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons achiote paste
  • 2 tablespoons chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup white vinegar
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 12 small corn tortillas
  • 1 cup diced pineapple
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/2 cup diced red onion
  • 1/4 cup crumbled queso fresco
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine the pineapple juice, orange juice, achiote paste, chipotle peppers, garlic, oregano, cumin, salt, black pepper, vinegar, and vegetable oil. Mix well to combine.
  • Add the sliced pork to the marinade and toss to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
  • Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Remove the pork from the marinade and shake off any excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Grill the pork for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through and slightly charred. Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes.
  • While the pork is resting, warm the corn tortillas on the grill for about 30 seconds per side.
  • To assemble the tacos, place a few slices of grilled pork on each tortilla. Top with diced pineapple, chopped cilantro, diced red onion, crumbled queso fresco, and a dollop of sour cream.
  • Serve the tacos al pastor supreme with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top. Enjoy!
