BEEF BARBACOA TACOS | Shredded Beef Tacos with Roasted Tomatillo Salsa | The Taco Series Pt 1

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Homemade shredded beef tacos (barbacoa) with fresh roasted tomatillo salsa are one of our favorite foods to make and eat. We have a serious love affair with these easy barbacoa tacos, but tacos taste good so no surprise there. This recipe in particular is heavy on flavor, gives us an excuse to break out the instant pot, and comes together really quickly! Oh and don't snooze on this roasted tomatillo salsa. It makes the dish and is better than anything you can buy in stores. You'll want to make extra to keep in the fridge for dippin those chips throughout the week.

Couldn't score good corn tortillas so I resorted to regular ones, but my GF suggested making our own flour tortillas from scratch like in your shrimp taco video and they were game changing. Whether I use them together or separately, everything in this dish will now be in regular rotation in my kitchen. Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into these incredible videos.

    Tacos de barbacoa have got to be one of the greatest foods ever. Not that hard to simulate in a modern kitchen, so you don't have to dig a big hole in the backyard. I love tacos. I have cooked barbacoa many times, but this week I'm doing them with beef cheeks. I have always used chuck roast before. I haven't figured out that portion yet, because I've never cook beef cheeks before.

    This recipe was incredible! Love the taco series. One recipe I've always wanted to try is birria de res and consome with like, quesatacos. Could you adapt this method/recipe to use the pressure cooker and use the remaining cooking liquid as the consome? All of the other methods on youtube require mucho hours on the stove top. Thanks dude, keep them coming!

  • @BrianLagerstrom

    You could turn the liquid into consome, but you would need some more stock. So you could cook in about 2x the liquid and then strain off the liquid and clarify for the broth. I would experiment to see exactly how much liquid it takes but I’ve made posole that way several times. Thanks a lot for watching dood.

I got the cactus pads at that mexican grocery store near Don carlos on cherokee. It was about 75% dope. I could've done better. My issue was that I used chicken instead of fish or beef.
