We Made Birria Tacos Like They Do In Mexico (ft. Birrieria Zaragoza)

Birria is one of my all-time favorite dishes. That being said, I feel like it's a tradition shrouded in mystery. I've always wanted to learn how to make this unctuous, meaty bit o' deliciousness and I had no idea how to start, so I called in the big guns. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the channel, chef Jonathan Zaragoza. Let's get cooking!
