It's "adobada". It comes from adobo and roughly means "that which has had adobo applied to it".
2. Having been to and lived in several locations in Mexico, I can safely say ALL esquites are prepared the same. White corn, butter, cheese (looks like parmesan, but I am unsure as to the type), and hot sauce. Also, don't call it an esquite. Most people in Mexico (except Mexico City) usually call it an "elote en vaso" or some other name that includes the word elote. If you call it esquite people are just going to make fun of you. It's become a joke word that only snobby "cultured" mexicans use seriously.

I used boneless country style pork ribs which I just cubed. I made the sauce exactly and I feel like its missing something … maybe a few bay leaves?

My hands are very disabled and the shorter tongs are easier for me to use and give me more control. 🙂

Me myself and I decided we had to act sophisticated and like we knew what we were doing. I chose my broth and he chose the meat and in my bra was something that looked like a green bean. I have a geographic tongue and cannot eat heat. So I picked up the green bean and ate it and I don't know what the look on my face was but I'm sure that it blew my eyeballs into my ears!! It was either a serrano or a larger bird chili. Either way I had to continue carrying on a conversation and try to act normal. 🙂

We only add garlic, salt and mexican oregano to our New Mexican red chile sauce and we NEVER use cumin. Cumin is Tex/Mex and is never used in tradional New Mexican dishes. Get your recipes from people who were born in the state and have deep roots here not from outsiders or cooks who are from a different state or country. Watch YouTube videos from people who are native to the state for authentic New Mexican dishes. Thanks….
