"Birria de Res Balbuena's birria taco is the slow-cooked spiced beef version that made this a pilgrimage destination. The consume — the broth from the birria pot — is served alongside for dipping, and it is rich with rendered fat and toasted chile flavor. This is what birria should taste like and it is the reason the Saturday morning line forms before sunrise."
