Yucatecan Grilled Pork

Mon, 29 May 2006 21:27:31 -0400

In researching Yucatecan cooking I have found this is Mexican region with strong Mayan and European influence which translates into their food. This recipe was found in "Totally Garlic Cookbook" a small book my late DM picked up on one of her many trips to the Gilroy Garlic Festival. Preparation time does NOT include marinating time. -- posted by Chabear01

Cochinita Pibil

This is a Mayan recipe for an incredibly delicious "pulled pork" for tacos. We make this at the restaurant I work at, Ciudad D.F. in Dallas, but I actually like this recipe better. It comes from 'Tacos' The Santa Fe School of Cooking Series cookbook. Achiote paste and Banana leaves can be found in your local Hispanic Market. Trust me on this the Habaneroes only add flavor, there is no heat at all. If you want it spicy add more and leave the seeds in. Roasting them first also adds more spice. -- posted by Lust

Grilled Skirt Steak With Onion-Cilantro Relish

Fri, 01 Jun 2007 22:05:15 -0400

Spicy marinades are well suited to hearty cuts of meat like skirt steaks. Take care not to marinate the steak too long, though, or the meat will be tough and stringy. The marinade is excellent with pork, lamb or chicken, too. Serve with fresh tortillas and refried beans -- posted by Witch Doctor
