NOTES:
This barbacoa recipe makes great street tacos, topped with your favorite toppings, burrito bowls served over rice or made into quesadillas. Make sure to prepare enough for leftovers for a day, or two. I promise you won't regret it.
This recipe is a little bit spicy, but you can easily adjust the level of heat by adjusting the amount of chipotles in adobo (don't leave them out) and the heat of your green chiles.
Bon Appetit.
