Here is the way I like to make Mexican barbacoa at home. I put all of my ingredients in the Crock Pot overnight and wake up to tender fall apart barbacoa. As a kid, I remember waiting in a line out the door at our neighborhood Mexican meat market for fresh corn tortillas, menudo and barbacoa. You can make barbacoa tacos dresses with your favorite salsa, fresh onion, cilantro and a squeeze of lime for the perfect breakfast taco. INGREDIENTS 2 bls beef cheek meat (stew meat or beef tongue work too) 2 tsp salt (1 1/2 tsp if using fine table salt) 2 to 3 cloves fresh garlic 2 bay leaves 1/2 small onion 5 to 8 drops of liquid smoke (optional) 2 tbls water (optional - to combine with liquid smoke) Paul: You and I must have the same abuelito. Barbacoa is my favorite meat. I too have loved it since I was little and had it on weekends as well. I have never been able to know how it has been prepared. There are only a handful of restaurants throughout Texas that know how to prepare it. Thank you, thank you, thank you for the video. I am going to go and prepare it your way to see how it comes out. I love Barbacoa. And I never figured it would be this easy to make.

I cook, my wife does not. I have a few buddies who are dating or have married gals from Latin countries. They cook, I am talking really cooking like this, from recipes that have been handed down through their families. I am jealous as hell. I like to eat great food, so I cook. You can taste the love in certain food where the person making it cares about the ingredients and the preparation. That is one thing that is dying in America with the majority of families. Their family food traditions are being replaced with store bought crap and eating out when they want something special. The most special meals should come from the heart and from your home.

Just saw your video yummy! Brings back old memories too for me! I grew up in the Valley, Edinburgh, dad actually went to the slater house where they would throw all the inners away! Crazy hu! I was a farm girl and we ate everything. Mom would clean the cow head and cook the whole head in the oven. The house would smell like a place! I still remember those smells. We would share our prize with my grandparents who lived next door. It was a feast of fresh Barbados, celentro, chopped onions, fresh tomato avacado and moms favorite chili pecin. Dont know if I'm spelling these things right but you get it enjoyed your video! You rock!

I have made this recipe twice both times with the Rumba brand Cachete de Res. I will preference this next comment with, I like fat However, the last cheekmeat I used was 75% fat. Previously, I used a recipe that called for cheap chuck roast wrapped in foil and roasted in the oven. That method didn't have enough fat. Next time I am going to buy a chuck pot roast and use the Cachete de Res together.

Nov. 2019 Just want to let you know that I made the recipe last weekend and it was the most delicious barbacoa I've ever had in my life! my whole family enjoyed it. Now, i can't wait to try your tamale recipes. If they turn out just as good. i will be the first to buy a copy of the cookbook you are working on! By the way, I'm from San Antonio too!

Fresh tortillas, made the south Texas way, and barbacoa that cooked all night. Available early in the morning on Saturday or Sunday all over south Texas, we used to eat it for breakfast. On mine add salt, cilantro and onion, and avocado. Rich flavorful meat. I have only had the pure cheek meat style, and have been warned of the mixed style.

New sub!

Wow, this hits close to home because you re describing everything about here in Texas going to the butcher shop and standing in line and ordering the barbacoa, carnitas! Also remember my grandpa and his stories of saying back in my day we would do the barbacoa from scratch stories I can hear my uncles saying para la dieta hahaha
