I had a dozen people over for a taco party today. I made five different meats and four different salsas. On a choricera, I made homemade chorizo, pork belly carnitas, and brisket "suadero". I made citrus marinated chicken barbecued on white oak, and finally lengua al disco. For salsas, I made a red salsa with six different kinds of dry chiles, an avocado-tomatillo salsa, a fire-roasted tomato and tomatillo salsa, and a cucumber-mango salsa. I also cooked up some jalapeños, cebollitas, and nopales on the choricera. Lastly, I made a michelada and paloma bar. Corn tortillas were homemade too.
Unfortunately, since I took on too much work and was running around like a chicken with its head cut off, I didn't take any pictures of the actual cooking. But at least I get to post the results.
