I don't know that I've ever eaten Carnitas.

Put it toward the top of your "should try" list...

Yeah, I've seen enough comments here I think I'll get some this week some time. :thumb:

If you have in a tortilla do corn not flour...

I'm doing pulled pork in the crock pot.

I still haven't recovered from breathing wood smoke 24/7 at our last BBQ competition. That stuff gets in your blood and becomes repulsive. It's like the stench that comes out of McDonalds. I have no idea how people work in a place like that.

Anyway, it's pulled pork with onions and spices. Smells good already.

this one gets high marks I may give it a whirl in a dutch oven this week sometime.

Every time I hear "Dutch oven"...

Simple but delicious.

Fried chicken breast strips

French fries

Salad with tomato and green onion

Louisiana hot sauce/ranch dipping sauce.

Meat just falls off. Omg so good.

But it's from a store bought packet.

Shoulder going back in for two more hours.

Gonna pan-fry some salmon and grill some wings... Great combo huh? :)

Here it is...

Inside.. OMG, yum....

That looks really good. How did you prep the salmon?

There is a place in Sedalia that has some of the best, tacos de carnitas, el tapatio is the name, ****ing awesome

Saltwater brine with a bay leaf and fresh Rosemary.

Then egg wash and a mix of standard store-shelf fish breading and store-shelf fish rub.

I used the grill's side burner, season the canola oil with more rosemary.

The larger piece cried about 3.5 minutes per side, and the smaller about 2 minutes per side,

Then into the 400-degree main grill on the upper rack for about 12 minutes.

The wings had been on the grill for about 20 minutes already, but it was only about 300-350 degrees for those 20.

Oh, and I nuked Knorr rice! Yeah, a total afterthought!

The main mess-up was NO FRESH LEMON!!! Had to use bottled lemon.

The rice and lemon were fails, I know!!!
