I mentioned moist because we first stopped off at El Fogon for their pastor, then headed to El Pastorcito for some of theirs and this "mystery" place. El Fogon was shot down immediately because theirs was dry though the flavour was okay, but not good enough for another try. El P and my mystery place had the best. Moist, spicy, with a hint of the pineapple. My son said that those were the best and he's pretty critical. |
Not to defend El Fogon, but...
Remember, the quality of tacos al pastor depends, to a certain extent, on how busy the place is. If they are pretty busy and selling a lot of them, the meat on the outside (the stuff they will cut off for YOUR taco) should still be fresh and moist. If business is slow, the outer part of the meat has a chance to dry out a bit. That's why, normally, I'll only order tacos al pastor when a place is pretty busy.
