Hey! I'm diving into making al pastor at home and curious: which grill do you recommend for that perfect char? Gas, charcoal, or something else? Looking to capture that authentic flavor. Any insights or tips on the best setup?
I think a charcoal grill works best for al pastor, as it gives a great smoky flavor. Though a gas grill can also do a good job if you’re looking for convenience.

For the authentic al pastor experience, a vertical rotisserie grill is ideal. This allows the meat to cook slowly and evenly, developing the signature crispy exterior and juicy interior.

Yo, gas grills are super convenient, but charcoal gives you that smoky, authentic flavor, so I'd go with that for the best char! Thanks for sharing the awesome recipe!

For authentic al pastor, charcoal is the best option as it provides a smoky flavor that enhances the dish. A vertical spit (trompo) is ideal for cooking, but you can use a regular charcoal grill set up for indirect heat if you don't have one. Gas grills are convenient but lack the smoky taste, unless you use a smoker box or wood chips. Don't forget to baste the meat with marinade while it cooks for extra flavor!
