How to transform beef brisket into tender barbacoa tacos
In short: This video demonstrates a method for making beef brisket barbacoa using banana leaves and a flavorful braising liquid that doubles as a salsa for serving.
The process involves rubbing the brisket with a seasoning mix containing dried Guajillo chiles, pineapple or apple cider vinegar, and chicken stock. After an overnight rest in the fridge, the meat is wrapped in a banana leaf and slow-cooked in a 225ºF oven for approximately four hours until it can be easily pulled apart.
The recipe utilizes a puree of toasted chilies, onion, garlic, vinegar, lime juice, chicken stock, beer, salt, and tomatoes. After cooking, the braising liquid is reduced to a thick sauce and mixed back into the shredded beef, while a portion is saved to serve as a garnish.
