Try it with the lid open and no oven :) We cooked one too but I decided to do it in the oven instead of chopping it up for the parrilla. And yes the breast meat came out like sawdust. Didn't have a chance nor room to brine it and also the thing was almost touching all sides of the oven. About 16 pounds or so. Someone raises them here on the island and it was super fresh but too bad it didn't come out better. Really need to get a larger oven. >Solo Empanadas One was just down the block from us. Got a little bit old after a while with them dancing about once a month right below you. >fireckrackers HEHE I miss that. Too much of a fire risk down here in TDF so they have them banned. The city does do shows though on New Years and a few other local holidays. I don't, however, miss drugging one of our dogs during those events. The first time, which was three months after we got her, we didn't drug her and she spent the whole night hiding in a corner shaking like crazy. You just can't find a quiet place to hide heh >turkey

One was just down the block from us. Got a little bit old after a while with them dancing about once a month right below you.

I gather I've missed some cultural event during my time here. A quick google search on them, however, reveals that they've been seen (and some folks have posted photos). It's apparently an ad campaign for a local empanada chain called Solo Empanadas, they send six dancing empanadas out into the streets to entertain folks and spread the word... I'll keep my eyes peeled for them! I was wondering myself about the dancing empanadas… I gather I’ve missed some cultural event during my time here.
