There's a reason Tacos Al Pastor are everyone's favorite and I'm so excited to share my take on on these delicious Mexican tacos, adapted for home cooks to use a grill, stove or oven to cook the meat. Serve them on warm corn tortillas with tender meat, grilled pineapple, pickled red onions, and cilantro.
