  • Pork and Pineapple Tacos...

    YUM!!!

    Buddy of mine cooks for Whole Foods in D.C. Today he posted a recipe for these tacos but the pork was not seasoned and it was broiled rather then grilled. All day at work today I thought about this recipe and made changes in my mind.

    First I cut up some pineapple and coated it with some siracha and grilled it along with onions that had a nice coating of Worcestershire. I wanted to soften both and add a bit of flavorful char to the outside.


    Next I rubbed some porkchops with cumin and lime and grilled til just done.


    To finish I grilled some flour tortillas.


    The tortillas were filled with some of the sliced pork, a couple spoonfulls of the pineapple and onion (which were chopped along with some cilantro) and a bit of fresh salsa from Publix.


    A close up view. Although simple in nature these tacos were bursting with flavor. Sweet, Salty, and Spicy all at the same time. Also very simple and quick to make.

      The siracha and pineapple was a great combo. I was wondering how that would fare when I tried it. Gave a very nice burn to the dish. Nothing bad just some heat you could feel and taste along with the sweet sour flavor of the pina.

              Very interesting combo, Vlap. Just may have to play around with this. Thanks for the ideas.

              I'm hooked on the sriracha sauce. Think I use it more than ketchup now. With the grilling season in full swing, I'm thinking the pinneapple and sriracha would make a nice appetizer or even a dessert on one of those really hot days that calls for a lighter meal.

                    Way to refine a dish, by making it look simple. This is one of those posts why I love this board.
