About AL PASTOR COOKING SAUCE, AL PASTOR
Meijer Al Pastor Cooking Sauce is a pre-made cooking sauce sold under the Meijer private label at Meijer supercenter stores in the Midwest. Meijer, Inc. is headquartered in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Al pastor is a Mexican culinary tradition adapted from Lebanese shawarma, involving pork marinated in chili, pineapple, and achiote, traditionally cooked on a vertical spit. This cooking sauce replicates those flavor elements for home use.
The primary ingredient is tomato puree (water and tomato paste). Canola or soybean oil and corn starch follow as the fat and thickener. Cane sugar and pineapple juice concentrate contribute sweetness and acidity characteristic of al pastor flavor. Distilled vinegar and lime juice concentrate provide additional acid notes. Sea salt, dehydrated onion and garlic, cilantro, chipotle in adobo puree (chipotle peppers, water, tomato puree, vinegar, salt, sugar, onion, and spices), ancho chili powder, and paprika extract complete the formulation.
