OK, a few of us started talking about this a few months ago... trying to figure out the best way to do this: make great al pastor either on a grill or with a rotisserie. Kruger, I think you had some thoughts about it. Any luck?
I'm sitting here visiting my family in southern california and lamenting that I can't find good al pastor where I'm from back East. There's got to be a good way to replicate this as close as possible to what you find in mexico or in various places around the country.
For those who haven't had al pastor... look here for a decent description/photo.
So... how would you do this? The best thing I could come up with is to slice very thinly a few pounds of pork butt, marinate it, then stack stack it tightly and skewer it with a few metal skewers. Then, you'd have to grill it, turning it frequently. You could grill the pineapple separately, then shave both the al pastor and pineapple into a tortilla...
Is there possibly a better way? Maybe using a rotisserie? (if only Weber made a vertical spit/rotisserie)...
Your thoughts and ideas are appreciated...
