Time 2h35m

Yield 8 patties

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

3 tablespoons canola oil
1 small Spanish onion, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 teaspoons dried Mexican oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon Spanish paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Pinch of ground cinnamon
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 1/4 pounds ground well-marbled pork shoulder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Heat 2 tablespoons of the canola oil in a small saute pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute. Add the oregano, cumin, paprika, cayenne and cinnamon and cook 1 minute. Add the vinegar and cook until reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
Remove the onion-spice mixture from the heat. Transfer to a blender, add 1/4 cup cold water and blend until smooth. Pour into a bowl and let cool to room temperature.
Add the ground pork to the onion-spice mixture and gently mix to combine. Mix in 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours and up to 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
To cook the chorizo, form the pork mixture into 8 patties. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon canola oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat until smoking. Add the patties and cook until golden brown and just cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Serve hot.

SAMBA SAUSAGES

Samba Sausages image

This is a recipe from Steven Raichlen's "The Barbecue Bible" Here is what he states in the intro: This simple recipe is the perfect symbol of Brazil's sensuality and scintillating spirit. Grilled sausages are, of course, common currency among the world's street foods, but it's only in Brazil that street vendors take the time to make tiny slits in the sausages, fill them with minutely diced onions and bell peppers, and lovingly baste them with olive oil as they cook. The "grill" of the vendor who gave me his version was the charcoal-filled hubcap of an old car. Virtually any type of cooked sausage could be prepared this way. I've called for chorizos, but kielbasa, knockwurst, or even hot dogs would work well, too.

Time 18m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

4 chorizo sausages, cooked (store-bought or other cooked sausages, each 1 inch thick and 4 to 5 inches long)
1/2 small onion, minced very fine
1/2 medium red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and minced very fine (or green)
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

Preheat the grill to medium-high.
Push a skewer lengthwise through each sausage. Make a series of diagonal parallel slits, 1/4 inch deep and 1/2 inch apart in one side of each sausage. Turn the sausage over and make a similar set of slits going the opposite direction.
Combine the onion, pepper, and garlic in a small bowl, then stuff some of the mixture into the slits in the sausages.
When ready to cook, oil the grill grate. Arrange the sausages on the hot grate and grill, turning with tongs, until lightly browned on all sides and heated through, turning as necessary, 5 to 8 minutes in all. As the sausages cook, drizzle oil over the slits.
Serve the sausages right on the skewers and eat them like Popsicles, with any remaining onion mixture.

CHORIZO SAUSAGE

Chorizo Sausage image

Chorizo is a chile-garlic flavored sausage much loved in Mexico and the American Southwest, but most of the commercially-available kinds are made with beef byproducts (such as salivary glands) that don't appeal to many folks. Here's a great recipe that uses ground pork, instead. It is a fresh sausage, so cook it thoroughly. It's highly flavored, so a little goes a long way. It is convenient if it is wrapped and frozen in small packages. Chorizo can be used in many ways! For breakfast, saute it and add to scrambled eggs. Fry up some chorizo and add some beans and spices, or grits or potatoes. Add it cooked to your burrito or taco fillings. It also is good to add cooked to a red chile sauce, stew, or any other dishes you'd like to have a nice Mexican flavor.

Time 20m

Yield 2 pounds

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

2 lbs ground pork
3 large dried New Mexico chiles (Chile Colorin) or 3 large mild red chilies (about 3.5-inches)
4 small dried chile de arbol (Chile deArbol) or 4 small chilies, according to how hot spicy you want your chorizo
1/4 cup boiling water
8 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons dry oregano leaves
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 teaspoon dark brown sugar
4 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 tablespoons tequila
3 1/2 teaspoons salt

Steps:

Break the colorin chiles into 3 pieces, and put them and the deArbol peppers in a bowl.
Pour the boiling water over them and let them sit until they're re-hydrated and soft.
Place the re-hydrated chiles together with the liquid into a food processor and add the garlic, oregano, cumin, black pepper, sugar, vinegar, tequila, and salt, and process until the mixture is smooth.
Place ground pork and the liquid mixture into a sturdy electric mixer (such as a KitchenAid) and mix well.
When secured in a sealed container, this chorizo keeps well in the refrigerator for a couple of weeks. I usually let it sit in the fridge for a couple of days to let the flavors meld, then divide it into smaller portions of 3 to 4 ounces (that's about two servings) and freeze it. If you have casings, you can also stuff it into those and smoke it - very tasty!
