Spice up your backyard BBQ experience in big and bold ways, with the first-ever book on Tex-Mex and Mexican smoke-cooked barbecue. You’ve seen multiple books on Southern BBQ and African-American BBQ, but nothing on the third great barbecue tradition-Hispanic barbecue. Here to fill that gap at last is Brandon Hurtado, the most celebrated practitioner of Tex-Mex barbecue around. His Dallas-area restaurant, Hurtado Barbecue, appears on Texas Monthly’s authoritative list of the top 50 barbecue joints in Texas and in Southern Living magazine’s ranking of the 50 best barbecue restaurants in the entire US South. Barbacoa presents Brandon’s masterpiece recipes for everything from Pulled Pork Carnitas and Lobster Tostadas to Barbacoa con Papas and Brisket Birria Tacos–and beyond.
