Let's Get Started

1. In a blender, combine the pineapple, onion, garlic, achiote paste, chipotle peppers, cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.
2. Place the sliced pork in a large bowl and pour the marinade over it. Mix well to ensure all the pork is coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the pork from the marinade and discard any excess marinade.
