Man, birria tacos are lots of work but even more payoff. I used tablitas and chuck roast so as to get plenty of rich bone broth in the mix and boy did it pay off. I have 3 quarts of birria going in the freezer to pull out for quick taco meals later. Damn solid day.

Nope just cross cut beef short ribs and chuck. I do need to make some cabrito soon though. Thanks!

Those look like the highest possible elevation of jack in the box tacos.

Hypothetical situation. I want to make mom's tacos. Obviously, I need cheese. What kind do I use? Do I use prepackaged shredded? Or do I grate it myself? Either? Both? Neither? ???

But make sure it's preshredded straight off the block.

Mom tacos with just meat and crappy shredded cheese is like a top 20 meal for me. I hardly ever make it though.

It’s not straight off the block tho

chum1 · « **Reply #391 on:** August 30, 2021, 08:46:17 AM »

My initial reaction was that Mexican blend is maybe a little on the fancy side, but those last two types of cheeses in the Kirkland's sound downright gourmet.

chum1 · « **Reply #392 on:** August 30, 2021, 08:50:09 AM »

Ultimately, I'd say whatever shredded cheese mom might grab at the grocery store qualifies. It could be just whatever's on sale.

mocat · « **Reply #393 on:** August 30, 2021, 09:45:09 AM »

it's absolutely whichever one is on sale
