In the taco world, there are many, many types of tacos to choose from. From chicken all the way to tongue, the options are endless. There is one type of taco that always hits the spot for me though and that is tacos al pastor. The beautifully marinated meat on the spike or spit just hits right. If you go to some taco joints, there will be a spinning spit with al pastor meat rotating and cooking away. Well with the Trompo King, you can duplicate the incredible sensation of biting into your favorite taco stand taco, right in the comfort of your own home or casa.
A Trompo King is a stainless-steel dish that has a vertical spike that screws into the center of it. They come in different sizes so you can use them on small grills as well as the biggest smokers. The best part? You can use your Trompo King right in your oven and it will turn out fantastic results too!! You simply thread thin sliced, marinated meats down the spike to form a meat stack. It is then placed in the grill and roasted until it reaches the desired doneness. Once it is done cooking, simply remove it from the grill and slice straight down the sides and serve.
You can make much more than al pastor on your Trompo King. It can be used for shawarma, gyro meat or any other type of stacked meat that you can dream up. It doesn’t even need to be sliced! You can cook whole cuts and the vertical spike will ensure even heating and cooking from all sides.
