bryan Posted November 12, 2009 Report Posted November 12, 2009 Anyone have any info on a nice Cuban Butt? Could use a good recipe.
Syzygies Posted November 12, 2009 Report Posted November 12, 2009 Re: Cuban Sandwich Anyone have any info on a nice Cuban Butt? So we're struggling for a snappy comeback, and the only names we can come up with are Castro and Ricky Ricardo. (We've used house-cured ham before, making the actual sandwich in a "Cuisinart GR-1 Griddler Panini and Sandwich Press", cheapest and best of breed. The sandwich recipe is straightforward, everyone agrees. I wouldn't use butt, one wants ham.)

bryan Posted November 12, 2009 Author Report Posted November 12, 2009 Thanks Doc. Neat site. I am on a quest for the doors that lead to opening up the capabilities of the Komodo-Kamado. It is capable of so much more than briskets, butts, roast, and steaks. All countries and their neighborhoods have top line wonderful recipes that could really shine if done on the KK. This forum has the resource and talent to gather and post this very special collection from all corners of the world. All those great taste many of us experienced in our travels are right at our fingertips. This forum touches a lot of world neighborhoods, with more joining every day. Isn't it great how almost every forum member owns the best cooking unit of the 21st century and wants to actively keep the fires glowing. This forum needs a special online KK cookbook to house these very special taste and flavors. Not a garbage collection but a worldly collection of "Flavors of Our Past". We have the equipment, talent to evaluate, test and select. Just need a control crew.
LarryR Posted November 12, 2009 Report Posted November 12, 2009 Here's a PERNIL cook that I do. It's Puerto Rican but similar to a couple of the Cuban roasted pork recipes I've done. I've done some interesting cooks outside of standard bbq/grilling. Beef cheek, Al Pastor to name a couple.
bryan Posted November 12, 2009 Author Report Posted November 12, 2009 Thanks Larry. This one is up for the next cook. Tell me more about how "you do" Al Pastor.
Sanny Posted November 12, 2009 Report Posted November 12, 2009 Tell me more about how "you do" Al Pastor. Well, Al's a nice guy. First I'd pour him some wine. Soft music on the tunes. Then fix a good meal. Oysters are a good choice... Some chocolate dipped strawberries for dessert. That's what you're talking about, right?
LarryR Posted November 14, 2009 Report Posted November 14, 2009 Al Pastor Ask and you shall RECEIVE Here are some Al Pastor Butt from my first attempt where I did it as an entire roast vs slices or chunks. I wouldn't recommend it, go with chunks or slices, this allows better penetration/coverage of the wonderful sauce. All this Cuban talk got me craving Pernil. Got one marinading right now!
bryan Posted November 14, 2009 Author Report Posted November 14, 2009 Re: Al Pastor "LarryR" Ask and you shall RECEIVE Sure looks and sounds like a great cook. I have added it to my list of cooks. More later on my cook. I'll even learn about pics. Would not want you to think I did not follow through.
