Behind the birria with Chef Ivan.

Toasted chiles set the base while caramelized tomato and onion are deglazed with mezcal for a smoky finish. Once everything is spiced and blended into a marinade, the beef chuck rests in it overnight before it’s slow-braised until tender.

Served with everything you need for a tabletop taco bar at Chico Malo.

Chef Ivan combines Chihuahua cheese, roasted poblano, and corn crema, all melted together until smooth and served with warm house-made tortillas.
