Smoked Pork Taquitos

[Arthur Aguirre]

I had a light bulb turn on when I had left over pulled pork...make taquitos.

This 7lb pork butt was originally made for tamales. It has a chile injection and a rub that consists of oregano, minced garlic, dried onion flakes, salt and pepper.

I used my meatrakes to shred and added some reserved chile sauce

Then I rolled the meat up in yellow corn tortillas and cooked in my deep fryer until crispy.

Lastly, the final plate.

Few things are as good as a homemade taquito. Well done! I've not made them in forever either. That must change.

You got that right...I don't understand they're only appetizers at the Mexican restaurant because I eat them as a meal when I make them at home! I make them way better too!

I completely agree Arthur, at our house, that's the meal! I swear my brother ate like 15 last time I made them. I was busy rolling and frying, and everytime my wife more over the table, the last ones were gone. I have no clue how he didn't burn out the inside of his face with them right out of the hot oil!
