Spicy Beef Birria Tacos
Texas meets Mexico in this unbelievably delicious dish! Beef brisket is seared off then braised low and slow with Mexican chiles and spices until absolutely melt-in-your-mouth-tender. Chef Akhtar's authentic Mexican barbacoa is served up with corn tortillas, fresh guacamole, rice and pickled red onions that are tinged a beautiful shade of pink with hibiscus flowers. Consider yourself warned: you might find yourself craving these tacos week after week!
