Get ready for a culinary road trip! This season, we’re hitting the open road – crisscrossing both Mexico and the United States – on a delicious quest to uncover the stories behind seven beloved tacos. From the savory depths of Suadero to the vibrant flavors of Birria and Fish Tacos, we'll explore the traditions and cultures that shaped these iconic dishes, tracing their origins and celebrating the people who keep them alive. Join us as we delve into the history and heart behind the American Taco, Burrito, Cochinita, and Cabrito too – it’s a flavorful journey you won’t want to miss!

1. Suadero
Sep 15, 2020 · 34m

A dish of the city and night, the suadero taco offers a welcome remedy for a weary head. Resembling its American counterpart, beef brisket, it possesses a bolder flavor, sharpened by a touch of spice.

2. Cochinita
Sep 15, 2020 · 33m

Cochinita pibil, a cherished Mayan tradition, is a slow-cooked pork dish prepared in an underground oven. Its preparation, maintained through generations and enduring even the era of colonization, holds a reverence akin to a sacred ritual.

3. Cabrito
Sep 15, 2020 · 30m

The story of the cabrito, or baby goat taco, is rooted in the traditions of goat herding, a practice with origins in Iran and Lebanon. Today, it stands as a defining culinary symbol of northern Mexico.

4. American Taco
Sep 15, 2020 · 32m

The American taco is, to begin with, an import—though it has undergone considerable transformation since arriving. Still undeniably satisfying, it is readily recognized by its characteristic crisp or soft shell.

5. Burrito
Sep 15, 2020 · 28m

The burrito’s appeal lies in its practicality: a generous portion of ingredients securely encased within a soft flour tortilla, preventing any spillage. This convenient foodstuff originated in Mexico's northern regions.

6. Birria
Sep 15, 2020 · 25m

The question arises: to dunk, or not to dunk? To use a spoon, or forgo it entirely? The very heart of a birria taco lies in its broth—a rich and fragrant infusion of goat meat and carefully chosen spices.

7. Pescado
Sep 15, 2020 · 30m

The finest fish tacos originate along Mexico's Pacific coast, subtly influenced by Japanese cuisine in their use of light, crispy breading and unwavering commitment to fresh ingredients.
