more or less these.
The rendered fat cap is the star, and I'm not so sure it will translate

So this was fantastic. Unique, bright, savory, delicious. Super easy, we made tacos with it with a anaheim chile/bell pepper salsa. So good. Thanks.

Our tradition for Christmas Eve is chicken mole and plenty beer. Christmas night this year I am doing a New York roast on the BBQ and plenty red wine. It's already marinading.

I am getting fat.

Pernil and Rajas tamales (not in the same tamal) with Cuban black beans. We didn't make the masa. I tied the tamales.

We actually had homeade tamales and enchiladas last night for Christmas Eve dinner. Got them from a local family who makes them fresh every year. Just our immediate family having dinner. Saw some neighbors having parties with 20 cars around their properties. They probably will be spending their New Years in the ICU....

There's gonna be another surge, but I hope I am wrong.

Surfed for a few hours today (on a 5'4") and felt like I cooked and ate for two days straight.

My sis dropped off a homemade pho kit for me on new years. She's been working on this recipe for a while and it is really coming along.20201231_175909.jpg

Glad it worked for you. I'm a fan
Definitely benefits even further from some acid to cut through the fat and something crunchy for texture. I usually do rice/black beans/ tortillas with lots of lime, or sometimes I pickle some red onion.. But a zippy salsa works too.
I'm usually only cooking for two, so I only make it twice a year or so and freeze some leftovers in batches. It would be great in tamales, or chile, or a asian slaw and rice type thing. anything really.

I'm usually full before anything is plated because I pull so many bits of crispy fat cap for taste tests
