My BEST TACO AL PASTOR in Southern California is from El Taco Grande in South Central Los Angeles. Like I always say, "The more dangerous the neighborhood the better the food!"
Here at El Taco Grande they are known for the delicious birria tacos but my absolute favorite taco is the TACO AL PASTOR. It's in the flavor and the technique. You have to try them to believe it.
World food blogger, Mr. Taster, joins me as my special guest. This is the place that made him a TACO LOVER! I also invited my good friend Jeffery Merrihue on this adventure. He tells us about the history of al pastor.
Thank you to @TheMrtaster for being my special guest! Let's have tacos next time you visit!

It’s not just about the food, but about the story, the background, the heritage, the journey, of the vendor that makes any business stand out from all the others.

Finishing adobada on the plancha is genius, so everyone gets the crispy parts.

Yeah, growing up in San Diego in the 70s & 80s, I had always known them as tacos de trompo or adobada when eating in Tijuana. It wasn't until I moved to Los Angeles permanently in 1989 that I had heard them called Al Pastor(even though many say they're distinctly different, I can't tell them apart LOL)

don't overthink it. they're essentially the same, just some taqueros might add a different ingredient or two or three

It’s like kabob, the cut and method of cooking is what sets them apart, adobada is the marinade but the pastor translates to Shepherd and it has to do with the pit fire like kabob, the Lebanese settlers brought that style to Puebla, it was there and then that this style came to be, the access to pork made it become the meat of choice due to many factors, but that’s part of the story

I don't know what happened to this place but they don't have the trompo outside anymore and the tacos are very small and pretty standard. I was very sad to go all the way there to see just standard or below 😢

Órale, now this is personal. San Diego is little Tijuana, it’s as if San Diego doesn’t really have the best they just steal Tijuana’s shine. LA has its own identity, won’t match Tijuana but it is our own, and please don’t say tacos “El Gordo” those are the worst I have ever had and their ordering system is so complex, keep it south of the border

@@mexipapaadventures San Ysidro belongs more to Tijuana than south San Diego, like I said, they are a reflection of tijuanas shine, they are basically tijuanenses doing their thing in San Diego, what is San Diego food? Name a great burrito and I will head there, I need to see this. I had one in San Ysidro but that is technically Tijuana
