[teh_fuzz]

i figured i may as well re-up this thread to give me something to post

I need five cheap laborers, can you help me out

If you come down to Houston, Texas - i can get you the mexican hook up!

Its called West Park & Chimney Rock - at the border of the Galleria area and Little mexico best place to find you some "help" for whatever it is your non-mexican self cannot handle

You can pay these dudes 20 bucks a day and a 12 pack and you pretty much have accomplices for anything and everything you can think of!

I need a good carne asada recipe.
I used to go to Alberto's in Cali every day when I lived there.
I got to the point I was ordering "surprise me"
the carne asada that was already rolled and stuffed
had huge chunks of steak and sour cream and I don't know what else.
I have no idea on how they season the meat and choice meat is it.

Carne Asada is nothing magical man... what you had sounds like a version of it but real Carne Asada is nothing more than what it translates into in English: Grilled meat (LMAO) then again some locations of the motherland use "Carne Asada" as a term for a plain ol' BBQ dinner party.

The best cut for Carne Asada or Arrachera is Skirt or Flank Steak and honestly nothing but a little pepper and salt (if anything) is needed! Some places use some sort of red rub with it consisting of chili powder and other mexican goodness but for the true taste nothing is better than just plain salt n pepper.

Of course Carne asada or Arrachera is always accompanied by Tortillas - THE CORN ONES! although the flour ones are also popular in the north of mexico (no, not Texas, the real northern mexico)

A good salsa to make for your Carne asada
- Tomatillos
- Avocado
- Serrano peppers
- Water
- Salt

Roast the Tomatillos and the peppers until they get scorched
Peel the tomatillos leaving some of the burnt goodness in them
Roast the serrano peppers and take the ends off before you roast them (Open your windows! depending on how "non mexican" you are you could choke LOL)
Put them the tomatillos and peppers in a Blender
Add 1 or 2 avocados
Blend to smooth perfection!

ORALE! you got some awesome tomatillo green salsa! - the more avocados you put in it the more "green/creamy it will be but it will spoil faster too

If you want to take the edge off a bit - Add some mexican sour cream (the runny kind)
If you want to make it hotter - Replace the serrano peppers with Jalapeños or add a Habanero in there


Another thing your typical Carne Asada is accompanies by is beer a good mexican laguer like:
Tecate
Sol
Carta Blanca
Bohemia
Indio

or a plain ol' mexican coke :9

Is the bark of a Chihuahua as annoying to a Mexican as it is to anyone else ? :willy_nilly:

Anything can be cooked and someone is bound to find it appealing.

Ive had crickets in a quesadilla
Ive had ants in a tortilla chip dip
Have I had chupacabra? Nope!

According to Wikipedia:
In the time of the Aztec Empire in what is now central Mexico, Mexican Hairless Dogs were bred, among other purposes,[SUP][/SUP]for their meat. Hernán Cortés reported when he arrived in Tenochtitlan in 1519, "small gelded dogs which they breed for eating" were among the goods sold in the city markets.[SUP][24][/SUP] These dogs, Xoloitzcuintles, were often depicted in pre-Columbian Mexican pottery. The breed was almost extinct in the 1940s, but the British Military Attaché in Mexico City, Norman Wright, developed a thriving breed from some of the dogs he found in remote villages.

Not more annoying than a pomeranian or any of the smaller breeds of dogs!
but yes they are annoying to us just as any yelp-y kind of dog!
