Entomata que? How come I do not see this in the menu in Mexican restos I go to?
good question - now that I think about it, I don't remember seeing them on a menu HAHA !!!!

just google Entomatada and you'll see a bunch. they're just cheese (queso fresco) wrapped in a corn tortilla and doused with any form of tomato sauce...

and all that is topped off with more queso fresco...

not too many white folks know about entomatadas since they're made traditionally in mexican households - they're very rare to find out in restaurants...

"...Besides aporreado, you'll find equally rare birds on the lunch menu, like a plate of entomatadas that are covered with a plush tomato sauce and a huge dollop of sour cream. You can get better entomatadas in town, such as the ones at La Mexicana (where you'll have to ask very nicely for them, since they're an off-menu item and not always available). But that's when you can find them at all. Like finding an elusive cup of fideo, spotting entomatadas on a menu means that you're eating in a true, old-school Tex-Mex joint of the type that used to saturate the city..."
 
Three hours later - chicken comes out of the brine. Check the ribs, looking good:

I'm moving them to the bottom rack and throwing on some brats...

Two more hours of cook time, 2 1/2 until time to serve...
