Once fully cooked, the meat is removed from the spit in very thin slices and served on tortillas with simple toppings such as cilantro, onions, lime juice, salsa, and occasionally pineapple. Once mounted to the trompo, a piece of onion and pineapple is speared on top of the meat to help add even greater flavor.

The marinated meat is cooked on a slow turning vertical rotisserie (called a trompo) with a gas flame.
