Birria tacos are rooted in the culinary traditions of Jalisco, Mexico, where they are often served at celebrations and family gatherings. Originally made with goat, this version uses lamb for a richer, more tender bite. Slow-cooked in a deep, spiced broth and crisped on a hot skillet, each taco is layered with flavor and warmth. It’s the kind of food best enjoyed with friends, a cold drink, and a generous squeeze of lime. Whether for a cozy weekend dinner or a festive meal, they always bring people closer.
