Author's Notes

If you cannot find Achiote Paste, mix together 2 teaspoons paprika, 1/2 tablespoon white vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 tsp garlic powder, and 1/8 teaspoon ground cumin.

If you would like to use a more traditional form of cooking, arrange the marinated meat and bacon in a small tower and place a large piece of pineapple up to the top, go through the tower with a wooden stick, and cook the meat in the oven for around 1 hour.
