San Antonio and its love for Big Red and Barbacoa
Nothing says Texas like Big Red and Barbacoa and San Antonio agrees. This year the city is hosting the 10th annual barbacoa & big red festival on Saturday, May 16 and Sunday, May 17, 2020, at The Greenline inside Brooks. Last year the festival was only one day, however, due to popularity, the family-friendly event added an additional day for San Antonians to celebrate.
How To Make Barbacoa Tacos
Making your own barbacoa tacos at home is as easy as firing up the slow cooker. Cut the chuck roast into 2-inch chunks and add to the slow cooker along with garlic, chipotle in adobo sauce, chopped green chilies, onion, fresh lime juice, apple cider vinegar, bay leaves, cumin, oregano, salt, pepper, ground cloves, and beef stock. Stir to combine and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high heat for 3-4 hours, until the beef is tender and falls apart easily when shredded with a fork.
Once shredded, toss the beef in the cooking liquid, then serve on tortillas with chopped cilantro, lime wedges, and chopped white onion.
