How to Make the Perfect Mexicano: A Crispy, Spicy Dutch Snack with a Smoky Twist

Looking to recreate the iconic Dutch snack, the Mexicano, with a smoky twist? This crispy, flavorful treat was first crafted in 1984 for the World Cup qualifiers in Mexico, even though the Dutch team didn’t make it. Known by other names like Carrero, Chileno, Belcanto, and Ribburger, this spicy, ribbed meat stick is beloved for its rich, savory taste and crispy texture. Whether topped with peanut sauce, chili sauce, or enjoyed as is, this recipe takes it up a notch by smoking the meat before frying it for an extra layer of flavor.
