BIRRIA TACOS | Rick Bayless Taco Manual
Birria has been having a moment for some time now, especially birria tacos with melted cheese, the ones called quesabirria. I have nothing against them, though I think they’ve started to eclipse the essentially perfect taco de birria, slightly obscuring that perfection with cheese. Those words, I know, are fighting words for some of you. So don’t get me wrong: I love melted cheese-I do! It’s just that sometimes birria wants to do a one man show-juicy-tender goat or lamb braised with red chile, browned a little, wrapped in a tortilla that’s rubbed with chile-infused fat and allowed to crisp a little on the griddle. The taco gets a splash of the braising juices, some onions and cilantro, maybe a little spicy arbol salsa. One bite of a perfectly made taco de birria and you’ve reached taco nirvana.

Mr. Bayless is more Mexican than me. I love that he respects Mexican culture, and didn't sellout, and make the move to LA. He's our Chicago legend.

This was such a traditional dish in my family. I had the task of peeling loads of garlic. The marinade had guajillo, vinegar, ginger, sesame seeds, marjoram, cumin, all spice, salt and a beer. Usually it was made with a really young goat or 2 becceritos Or lamb. The meat was marinated for 24 hrs and then steamed not boiled. The water that was used for steaming became the most delicious consomé broth.
I ordered this recently for the first time at a Taqueria and I couldn’t believe I’ve gone my whole life without tasting this unbelievably delicious dish
Birria is always good in all presentations: in a bowl, in tacos, in tortas, in burrito, Guadalajara style, Tijuana style, Sinaloa style, etc.

When he used lamb for Birria instead of beef, I immediately fell in love 😍 Love you and your cooking. Your showing this Mexican-American girl how to cook
Rick! Thanks for making the wonderful real Mexican cuisine approachable and giving people the inspiration to make it themselves. Much appreciated!
I only knew of birria as a guiso, in Mexico and San Diego, eaten with tortillas, but not as a "taco". They've become real popular here in San Diego the past 6 years or so. And they're amazing!
Rick makes me appreciate Chicago; I didn’t grow up eating birria I’m from Michocan originally birria is not big there; but Chicago has food from all of Mexico and Rick does a great job of exploring it all and now birria is my guilty pleasure I get it at Zaragoza down by archer
Getting a master class in Mexican food from a culinary legend. We're blessed. Thank you Rick. I love birria and want to make my own.

Please do it. Make the dish! You will never be the same !!!!
Rick this might be your BEST taco video of all time my friend !!!
I met Rick Bayless at his restaurant in Chicago and he is such a kind person. He had me and my gf go behind the bar to take a picture because “the lighting is better there” he’s my favorite and I just love him so much more after getting to meet him.
I love Mexican, love Rick showing how to cook it, he is amazing and super friendly.
I’ve been watching Rick Bayless for years. I subsequently came across this KZread episode by chance and remembering him from a cooking show I tried this recipe. Holy Cow!! This done properly is the best excuse to eat. I know Rick has a lot of “Best things” but it’s all true. Each of These recipes reaches into that level of excellence where they are just that; Devine Consumption. I will be eternally grateful to enjoy and share just what he has found and shared with each of us. Thank you Rick. Thank you thank you thank you. Best, Tom G
So THIS is the video you were hinting at! I'm so pumped to make this! Thanks so much for sharing with us!
His passion is contagious. Much love and respect
I cannot wait to try this. Great recipe and explanation as usual Mr. Bayless.
Thank you! We love Birria!!
Yes! I'm so glad to see this video. I found several new taco trucks in Houston searching for the best Birria!
I love how Chef Rick explains cooking food with other senses like color, feel, sound, sight.
It was a real joy watching Rick make such a delicious looking meal. Rick you’re a wonderful teacher and chef…will give this a try soon!
Haha , I love this guy. Just started watching also . He keeps it real .
ive been watching you for the better part of decade since you were on the local pbs here and i have loved your content since then thank you for making hispanic food more well known
Rick is a legend. I love his programs and how they explain the origins and history of each dish he makes.

I make these a few times a year. Always use chuck. It is my family's favorite. They can't get enough. When you take a bite at the end and say it is heaven, you are correct sir. It is fantastic! Thanks for the video.
Wow Rick my mouth is watering! They look so delicious! Thanks for sharing!❤
Thank you Rick. Always appreciated and enjoy your cooking since I started watching your PBS shows years ago. I am an Argentinean in Texas that loves Mexican food since I was introduced to it over thirty years ago. You are a great cook and teacher. Thanks!
Mr Bayless ur one awesome trooper, being Hispanic here in south Tejas ur recipes are over the top. God bless u sir
I normally do not like lamb, but I want to try Rick's recipe just because I trust him. I have been watching his shows since the early 2000s and he has always delivered delicious dishes.
I used to line cook fine dining throughout my 20's and really miss the process. Your videos take me back even though you're working at home. Cooking is my favorite activity for relieving stress. Great work sir!
Salivating just watching this. Will be on the rotation for sure. great video!
Birria is one of those sleeper dishes in the pantheon of Mexican dishes that more people should try. If you have a friend that "does not like Mexican food", they probably haven't had posole, mole poblano, birria, rajas con crema, etc.

I’m eating this birria as I write this, it’s delicious !! Only my 2nd attempt at birria, this is miles ahead of my 1st try(another recipe). I used 3lbs of chuck roast with all it’s fat, incredible red oil at the end! Muchas gracias señor Bayless, me gusto mucho !
I don't know how I've lived for the last few years, I used to watch you all the time on the Create channel from PBS.... Subscribed and never happier! Thanks for your craft Rick!!

Rick Sir. You make me proud to be a Chicogian.
How hysterical! Its Cinco de Mayo and I just returned home from my favorite Mexican restaurant and had Birrias! They were beef though. I think. LOL!

That's intresting, I've always had these types of tacos with some cheese fried on the outside.
I made this last night (went with goat). It was awesome Rick. Did some without cheese and some with a mix of Oaxaca and queso fresco. This gringo preferred the queso option.
Wow amazing mouth watering food ❤
I can only find beef birria here in Mazatlán. I prefer goat, but really - any red meat works well. I have two tortas ahogadas places within walking distance that also do birria and quesabirria tacos ... today may involve a visit around lunch time!
Happy Cinco De Mayo and Thank you for the fantastic video instructions.

Interesting note, I live here in Mexico and Cinco de Mayo is not celebrated, in fact most Mexicans don't know what it is and those that do call it a gringo holiday. Independence day is the 15th of September, the day the peasants of Pueblo defeated French occupation was Cinco de Mayo. 🙏🏽
Nice, straightforward presentation. No frills, so one can experiment and grow from this as a standard. I think Rick should take a trip, domestically and to Mexico and document his visit to a few dozen of the best taquerias.

Thank you for the video I have been wanting birria since I first heard of it and I think your recipe is the easiest to follow. I was wondering do you have a video on the de Arbole salsa you made for the birria in this video
A Chicago legend.. go to Cruz blanca it’s really excellent. A brewery, amazing salsas and margaritas- great patio, overall it’s a Homerun! Most people probably knows Tortas Frontera from Ohare which is very solid too
Guanajuato goat birria was fantastic!

yeah mate good effort
I had the most delicious birria made with goat in Chicago just back in March in birrieria Zaragoza
i made the slow cooker barbacoa recipe which adds cinnamon and allspice and i gotta say i love those spices in the dish it made a better broth than my local birriaria
Looks absolutely delicious. Im a wisconsin boy so I need to have some melted cheese in there to glue it all shut. But then, its a long and glorious dunk to really get those juices to penetrate thoroughly. Beautiful job. Thank you.

for my birria I use a beer and water for the sauce/broth. Very excelent! dip the tortillas in the broth and toast on an electric flat top griddle. flip tortillas and place meat and cheese and one half and fold over the tortiila. cook about a minute, flip taco cook another minute and serve.
Great!
Just had them for 1st time 👍

Thank you for your lovely compliment. I hope my recipe was able to help you in your cooking.
Love your authentic recipes so much. I was wondering though, why didn't you use Oaxaca cheese in the tacos like most recipes call for?
Cooking this right now, just replaced the guajillo-chillies with pasilla as I only had the latter and added a bay leaf, most likely not an option for someone with the name Bayless 😂 hope it turns out nicely 😊
YUMMY 😋
I like mine with cheese melted inside so the ingredients are stuck together and cannot escape my mouth when devouring!
