Welcome back food family! Ay Dios mío, I had been craving this dish for months! Tabasqueño Style Braised Pork isn’t just food—it’s a hug on a plate. Today, I finally gave in, marinated that pork shoulder overnight, and let it cook low and slow until the house smelled increíble .

They lingered around the kitchen, smiling, clearly hoping I’d hand them a tortilla with a tast

And since it skips chile de árbol, it’s flavorful without be

Welcome back food family! ¡Híjole, Thanksgiving otra vez! You know, that one day of the year when we all pretend we can eat just a little bit and end up rolling ourselves to the couch like tamales.

Welcome back food family! Today I made this delicious and super easy Al Pastor Picadillo. I was crazy busy today so having store bought sopes and refried beans at home was super convenient and made the prep work alot shorter 😌 I’m sure you can relate! My family enjoyed the picadillo on sopes. It can also be enjoyed with tacos or tortas! The longer you let it marinate, the better and tastier it will be. I let it marinate overnight but at minimum two hours will do the trick. �
