Smoked carnita verde enchiladas

[cjtexas]

Slow smoked carnitas, crank the temp up to 375 for enchiladas. Best yet.

Had left over for dinner real early, then took a nap. Now I want enchiladas, or at least some carnitas!

One store I worked ate got a beef head instead of beef back ribs we ordered. So I wrapped it priced it & put it out were I had a hole to fill in a freezer. It sold real fast so we order 2 more, Karen writes in complaing about the ritual sacrificial heads in the freezer.

Are you going to buy cheeks or a whole head? Down in the hole gives you more even temps.

Little neighborhood taco joint had great shrimp & barabcoa tacos that I ate all the time. One after noon I was eating a late lunch & saw the head cook chopping skirts. I figured because they were not trimmed she used them for her barbacoa.

Ever eat Sweet Breads? Smoke whole oxtails mmm swiging steak. Size of your pit you need a suckling pig & cabritio on it.

I’ll give anything a shot twice. It’s the part of convincing mama it’s “the best part of the cow”

Years ago I was tasked with cooking whole pigs. The guy I worked for wanted to cook 3 pigs, 3 different ways. The fires were started the pigs prepped & soon the air was fragrant with pork. This was a set up weekend so other employees were around all wondering if it was done yet?

These pigs were really nice & freshly slaughtered. I noticed the kidneys came with them & everyone seemed hungry. So I butterflied the kidneys & grilled them perfectly then offered samples. Everyone was ranting & raving asking what I just fed them. My reply of piss pumps caught 90% of them confused! When I relieved kidneys a few thought they were short changed!

One of my very favorite things to cook outside are marrow bones. I had ate marrow my whole life but really liked it while hunting in africa cooked on the fire center of the boma telling lies & drinking gin & tonics at night.

Oysters like they do them in San Leon @Gilhooley's are very good on a smoker

Get a butt or two or three (3 in the pic)
Cut them into 2x3 pieces
Take cereal bowl:
Dust the bottom with cumin
Go by feel with onion powder, oregano, S&P, and I used a NM red chili pepper my ma brought back from her last visit to Santa Fe, probably 1 cup of that (whole bag)

smoke 2 hrs 225-250, your call
Prepare broth (2-veg broth, lotsa onions on bottom 3-4 cloves garlic)
Put broth in at 2 hours to heat up
Put pork in broth when you get the color you want (pork starts to be softish, about to break easily)

Put Pork in broth And cover in foil
Let it go for another 2-3 hrs

verde sauce
8 tomatillos
8 big serranos
2 onions skinned
Put em in the smoker for 45 minutes
Throw em in a blender with seasonings of your choice , (Salt amd garlic is all I use)
Blend well
