Homemade Tacos: Hard or Soft??

[riser4]

Mmmmm, great minds think alike. Way back when I was stuck in Raton for a month I regularly gorged on these at some hole in the wall diner - owned by apaches IIRC. Fry bread, some crappy slow cooked cut of cow, smothered in green chiles with a little cotija sprinkled on top.

Shit. Never had one, now I want one.

I was wondering whether to bring up the Indian/Navajo taco. Popular in the southwest, the ‘shell’ is frybread. Some of the purists here should confront the Indians selling these and straighten them out:

I always give the Native Americans a pass when it comes to cultural appropriation. I think they've earned it.

[skaredshtles]

Again, I argue that by definition burritos require beans.

You're wrong.

NTTAWWT.

Especially since indigenous peeps invented the tortilla...

[MakersTeleMark]

In my entire life, I have never had a burrito with beans in it.

That's a long time, and a lot of burritos.

Although, I am putting beans in my taco.

'Murka (new or old).

What rock do you live under?

I don't think I've had a burrito without beans?

not once, ever

[MakersTeleMark]

A very tasty one, thank you. I don't need your bean filler!

I'm not a bean fan. Give me a brekie with green chile eggs and cheese, give me cheek meat with crema and guac. Don't needs those fillers.

But, I will redeem myself. Wait for it.

Smoked ribs pulled with quick pickled escarol, with white beans chili and onion marinated in lime, cumin, mex oregano.

Corn. Soft. Dinner.

I'll get my riboflavin somewheres else thankyee n stick to the legumes

eta; i'm not saying anything new; mexicanish cuisine as a whole done right, is healthy.

Good Carnitas or Pernil beats any kinda ribs any day.

I rendered the ribs for 2 hours in 4 types of chilis. Basically carnitas with crunchy fatty bits.
Divine. The balance from the touch of balsamic and rice wine vinegar in the escarol coupled with the salt and green chile in the beans. To die for. Could have fed an army of Mexicans.

Indian Tacos? I wasn’t impressed, but maybe it was just the place I tried them at.

I came here to praise New Mexican Mexican food. I ran across a place in Clovis called Leal’s that has the best Mexican food I’ve ever tasted.

I since learned while looking them up that they are actually a small family owned chain of TexMex restaurants that started in Muleshoe Tx and drifted over the line into Clovis. If you ever find yourself passing through Clovis (or Muleshoe or Amarillo) at dinner time, it is worth a stop.

Try their Crispy Rellenos Grande: two crispy fried rellenos covered with Hatch green chile con queso served over a bed of tender savory brisket. Simply amazing food.

Sorry, what were we talking about again, tacos?

There’s a restaurant around here that does these pretty well. Kachina Cantina. They just opened another one in LODO I think.

What about fish tacos?

Like a good carp or flounder.

There is a place in the food pantheon for crispy fish tacos on flour tortillas (Baja style).

Probably - the ones I've had have been fucking DELICIOUS. I'd love to get some authentic ones from the side of the road in New Mexico... maybe I'll do a road trip just to find some.

I had quite a few fish tacos on holiday in Cabo, and was never served one on a flour tortilla.

I’ll have to try that! My go-to place in ATX is TacoDeli but always open to new suggestions.
