Momias (Bacon-Wrapped Meat and Cheese Tortillas)
Fernando Carrillo loves this adaptable snack, which is popular in Northern Mexico. The name comes from the Spanish for mummy, which makes sense as meat and cheese get double wrapped, first in a flour tortilla and then in bacon. Then it’s cooked on a grill or griddle until the bacon is crisp and the cheese melty. In Mexico, there's often a hot dog inside, but Fernando prefers using leftover Traeger-made pulled pork or brisket in his.

Tacos Al Pastor
Truly authentic tacos al pastor are near impossible to make in a home kitchen, unless it’s equipped with a spinning vertical spit. That’s because the dish originated with immigrants from Lebanon to Mexico who took their method for cooking shawarma and applied it to tacos, replacing the lamb with pork in the process. Yet this easy, weeknight-friendly preparation hits many of the same notes with spices like cumin and cinnamon, heat from canned chipotles, and bright and sweet pineapple. This makes enough for about 24 street-size tacos; leftovers will keep a couple days covered and refrigerated.
