Barbacoa for tacos Barbacoa for tacos
*After trying barbacoa from many taco trucks and restaurants.. I always walked away assuming I didn't like it. It was flavorless and disappointing to me. This dish is full of flavor. A little about me....I grew up learning only American dishes (Fried chicken, mashed potatoes etc); upon marrying a Hispanic man... I soon found out I needed to learn many dishes I'd never heard of before! After much research and practice.. I learned and am still learning much accepted tweaked recipes that have the full stamp of approval from the true connoisseurs of authentic Mexican Food. Enjoy!

Barbacoa Burrito Bowls Barbacoa Burrito Bowls
I make this in a pressure cooker, but a slow cooker would work just as well. Cook on low for 8 hours or start in the morning and come home to a hot meal! Don't bother getting too fancy with the fixings. Canned and fast is easiest. I use a simple tomato rice for the base.
