    We in Nuevo León just add salt to the cabrito. It’s our main dish for dinner, carne asadas, parties, etc any excuse to grill cabritos! We also use mesquite to cook with. Also the best parts is the riñonada, costillas,la aldilla flavor is the bomb! We add no lemon but eat with corn tortillas!

  • @michaelbethancourt9780
    @michaelbethancourt9780 2 місяці тому +5

    From Monterrey here. Great video, here are a few points:
    1. We season the cabrito with saltwater (submerged) in a cooler for about 2-3 hours. That’s it, it only needs salt.
    2. The kidneys and riñonada are the best meat/section on the cabrito
    3. Once it’s done, we eat it as is to appreciate the natural flavor, or you can put it in a fresh corn tortilla with a salsa molcajeteada (better if it’s chile piquín), then add lime and salt to taste to the taco.

    In the real South Texas (Rio Grande Valley) and northern Mexico the kidneys are cut with the part of the body called, La Riñonada. This part, the head, and the machito are saved or portioned to the head of the household or special guests. Olive oil and salt will do the job but there are many more ways to season a cabrito.

  • @chucas14

    I am from Linares, Nuevo León. Here we have the best cabritos in the entire state. We cook it by leaving it in water and salt for 12 hours and that's it. Once you have it on the fire, you just rehydrate it every half hour and what I use to cook it is the Kanka, turning it over and over.
    If you haven't used Kanka, I recommend it. The process is much easier.

    Get in your truck tomorrow (or tonight) and drive to Brady, Tx. Go to the park and pay your small entry fee. Then get a plate of real asadora smoked cabrito, some mexican rice, a couple spoonfuls of some awesome pinto beans, and an ice cold beer. Sit down and eat some of the best cabrito you'll ever eat. Then go try a different pit man's sample. You'll have a great time, leave full, and meet some great folks!!!!
    And don't forget to grab a small bowl full of some bird's eye peppers! They are some hot little devils, but the heat is forgiving and it adds a ton of flavor to your cabrito or beans!!!!
    Gotta go to the Cabrito World Championship Cook Off at least once in your life.
