Once Upon a Time… in pr

It was about five years ago, Chef Tyler was in the middle of prepping for a quiet dinner party when his phone rang — loud, fast, and frantic. On the other end was a voice that wasted no time:

“Can you make 100 Puerto Rican chicken pinchos… right now? It’s for a music video shoot.”

Chef Tyler blinked. “A music video?”

“Yes,” the caller said, almost out of breath. “It’s for Bad Bunny. The track’s called Bellacoso. We need the pinchos ASAP — they’re part of the vibe.”

Tyler had cooked for celebrities before, but this was something else. Reggaeton royalty? A hundred chicken skewers? On-demand?

Challenge accepted.

He got to work — marinating the chicken, firing up the grill, and threading each skewer with the speed of a kitchen ninja and the precision of a true artist. Within hours, 100 sizzling, golden-brown pinchos were ready, infused with island flavor and Tyler’s signature touch.

The delivery was made. The shoot went down. And when Bellacoso dropped, it exploded — Bad Bunny and Residente bouncing through the streets of San Juan in a rebellious, joyful, slightly chaotic anthem of liberation and rhythm.

And yes — if you look closely, you’ll spot them. Actually you can’t miss them. The pinchos. Others call them: Puerto Rican Chicken Skewers. Glorious, humble, flavorful. Chef Tyler’s unexpected cameo in reggaeton history.

So next time you’re vibing to Bellacoso, keep your eyes peeled for the real stars of the show: those legendary 100 pinchos.
