My Mexican rice recipe
Arroz Mexicana aka Mexican Rice
All this prep required a good lunch after getting thing in the smoker.
So I made up some quesadillas with the pork mixture.

Homemade Red Chile Sauce
This is a beautiful, robust and spicy red chile sauce
1T Oil or bacon grease
2T finely minced onion
2t finely minced garlic
2T flour
1t cumin
1/2t Mexican oregano
2-4T sugar, to taste
2-4T salt, to taste
1/8C each Sweet paprika, Guajillo, Arbol and Ancho chile powders
(Yes, I'm cheating not using whole chile pods, powders are much more convenient.)
2.5C chicken stock
Lemon juice, to taste (optional)
In a medium sauce pan add the oil and saute the onion and garlic
Add in the cumin, oregano and flour, cook to form a roux
In a separate bowl combine chicken stock, paprika and chile powders, whisk well to avoid clumps
Combine with roux and whisk well to avoid clumps
Bring to boil and then simmer for a 5 minutes
Add salt, sugar and lemon to taste
Work sauce through a fine sieve or coarse cheesecloth to avoid a gritty sauce
The Finale
