Great value for the money. Got this for my son and MyBest.Kitchen he made a 3 lb beef tenderloin for Christmas dinner. Best filet I've had outside a top end steakhouse. So good, I bought 2 for myself.
Please, please don't add cheese to that taco, don't ruin it.
Also, if you have a slow cooker use it, you don't have to cook it in a plastic bag, all you need to do is cover the bottom and sides of the pot with banana leafs (you don't need to tap them to bring the flavor out, that was weird), put in the meat and cover with more banana leafs, leave it for 8 hrs, and you are done!!
For best results, leave the meat marinate with the paste (which in real life is a sauce) overnight before cooking.
And again, don't add cheese to this taco, EVER!
FAIL!
I normally am a big fan of your recipes, but we made this one to-the-letter, including the Seville Oranges, and the meat was surprisingly unflavourful.
We talked about it, while eating, and decided it needed more acid, more heat, even more salt, which is unusual for us. (The flavour of the accompanying vegetables were fine. I liked the picked onions. My daughter made a tasty guac to accompany…)
On the plus side, we had extra Seville Oranges, so I made a cocktail called "Orange Blossom Cocktail", which we loved.
At the grill: You can use half of an onion in lieu of the oil soaked paper towels.
It cleans, and seasons the bars. An onion near its expiration date is best because you want to make sure the onion half is thrown away after use.
ORRR, we can cook the four pound pork butt in the oven at 275 degrees for three hours for a wonderful cochinita without the long wait. J/S
I’m looking for outstanding chicken dumpling, been looking for long time, no luck.
had cochinita pibil almost every day for breakfast in mexico, cant wait to try some recipes out at home
Aint nobody got time 🌮 😭
Didn’t Johnny Depp’s character shoot the cook over this dish in “Once Upon a Time in Mexico”?
Julia is such a master educator. (I'm showing up on Tuesday, btw.)
Looks delicious, I will try this recipe. I like your nod to Hispanic heritage in your beautiful hair embellishment. 🐶🐕🇺🇸
Oh that looks sooo good!
Looks like a nice flavor profile. How would this work with a pork jowl?
Can you substitute the pork with beef?
A real Yucatán Cochinita Pibil taco has NO fresco NOR radish 🤪
No cumin or cloves?
Also, what if you do not have a vitamix, or similar that is capable of pulverizing the anatto/achiote seeds?
Hello ATK. How long can you keep this in the fridge / freezer for? I tend to prep my food in advance for most of my cooking.
WHERE ARE TRUMPS TAXES?
They are always doing the absolute most for these tacos 😭😭😭
Sounded good, but I have never seen the first four ingredients for sale. How about showing things that the average American can make, not just the big city hippie libtard?
Will be making this.
Where can I get "Venado" seeds. I live in Hawaii and could not find on Amazon.
Another traditional dish bastardized!
Why would you bother making this sous vide? It's actually easier to do it in the oven.
For us Condo livers (or apartment dwellers), is there an alternative way to start this recipe w/o a grill? The oven? Cast Iron pan ? or ??
I'm sorry I don't care how tender it is, I won't eat anything cooked in a bag.
Cochinita pibil is one of my favorite dishes. This recipe looks delicious. For the evaporation issue, you should try cutting a circle out of the lid the same diameter as the sous vide cooker. If you use this container for other purposes, you can just buy a spare lid. It's a little difficult because the lid plastic is quite durable, but it's better than using that much plastic wrap.
YUMMY, AND YUMMY !
Looks great! More sous vide recipes please!
ATK,,,JULIA,,,Hello, that looks great,,When I was a child we had an ANATTO tree,in the yard, it is most beautiful in bloom ,PINK/VIOLET FLOWERS, my brother &I used to THROW the open seed pods at each other YES IT STAINS REAL BAD,so we got whipped, for staining our clothes( 1940s ) JULIA,how do you like your WOLF STOVE, compared to what you had before ? 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
It looks amazing, will definitely give it a try
In most cases, the Sous Vide technique produces a lunch meat-like product that has little taste with a texture of boloney but this recipe works.
Great video definitely would love to see more sous vide videos from American test kitchen
That looks good!
It's missing cumin. Also, it's "habanero," not "habañero"
sorry but this is too much work…. I would do it in a crock pot
There's a place in my city that makes this and it's killer!! Try this recipie.
I love my sous vide, but this would be better on a smoker. Or maybe smoked for a few hours and then in the sous vide for 20 hours. Liquid smoke doesn't really do much, in my opinion.
I will never get into sous vide cooking: the sheer amount of plastic that is used for this ONE dish is insane.
I could almost swear I smelled that wonderful onion when you sliced it.
I'M MAKING THIS ONE FOR SURE!! Looks SO GOOD!
Super Easy!!! 😜
Would have been better on a smoker. But it does look pretty tasty
that looks amazing!
Do you have a suggestion for an alternative if you don't have that water bath appliance? And what else would you use that appliance for?
