Learn from a birrias master how to make your Mexican home cooking more varied, exciting, and richly flavorful than ever before.
Traditionally, birrias are the beloved stews served in Mexico on all special occasions, such as weddings, quinceaneras (girls’ coming-of-age celebrations), and family reunions. They are made with a meat—traditionally beef, pork, or goat—slow-cooked in an adobo sauce of chile peppers, garlic, vinegar, and herbs, then served with tortillas for dipping. Food writer, cookbook author, and chef Jesse Valenciana is the virtuoso of birrias.
