....the problem might be Las Brazas restaurant in downtown Mankato, Minnesota. And how is this so?
Simple. Las Brazas introduced a new flavor of meat for their wonderful burritos, tacos, and taco salads: pastor. Now they claim that it's just marinated pork--a delicious slow cooked meat with a nice mild pepper sauce, by the way--but we all know what could get into pork dishes in pre-Christian Polynesia and "Fried Green Tomatoes."
Seriously, if you're in Mankato and need a bite to eat, we heartily recommend Las Brazas for a quick bite to eat--come hungry--and we would never seriously accuse their ownership of supporting cannibalism. If you're not near Mankato, here's a recipe and a history.
