Very good breakfast tacos!

This guy at work was always telling me how this little convenience store had the best tacos ever and I always forgot or never had time to try it.

They rock, that is all.

There must be a thousand vendors in Dallas. The tacos always come with lime wedges, onions, pico, and green sauce. For $2, it's a tasty breakfast.

I don't like the taste.

I had never had one until 98 - when I moved here. The ex was Mexican, and I ate a couple on a few consecutive weekends (her dad always bought some), then finally spoke up with 'I've tried enough, and I don't like them.'

Never did know exactly what the meat was until after I said 'I didn't like it.'

My buddies wife got all wrapped around the axle one weekend - they were visiting from out of state, they wanted to try it, I let them - then told them what it was.

Thought she was gonna shoot me.

Chipotle's Barbacoa Burrito always hits the spot.

Barbacoa is shredded beef. I think you guys are talking about lingua (cow tongue) tacos. Both are good

The best fast food tacos I've ever had were Steak Tacos from Taco Tote.

I'd be willing to go back to El Paso just for the tacos, Oh and maybe for the Strip Clubs

There was one Mexican place right by the airport (forget the name) where an old guy in the back had a giant pot on the stove full of Green chili with loads of potatoes, beef, chilis, etc... of almost a Dinty Moore Stew like consistency. Those burritos were the best, but I was usually the only English speaking guy in line.

They can bust your butt when it comes to manual labor.

That's almost always a good sign when it comes to quality of food, I have found.

kind of, if you think of hot dogs as shredded beef as well. its all the excess meat that cant be made into other things.

still tasty though!

"Real" barbacoa is shredded beef cheek meat. It's not just a chuck roast. Taste and texture is far different (and better) with real cheek meat.
