Pork Barbacoa Tacos
Chef Akhtar's tacos are one of his specialties, and after one taste of these Tex Mex-style pork tacos, you'll understand why. The star of these tacos is the spicy braised pork, cooked in the style of barbacoa until it's pull-apart tender. Tuck the tender pork into soft corn tortillas and top with queso fresco, Mexican crema, and Chef's homemade salsa roja. A side of comforting red rice completes the dish.
