Where does birria come from?

Birria is a traditional dish from Jalisco, Mexico!  Originally made with goat, it has evolved to include beef, lamb, and other meats. It's famous for its rich, savory, and slightly spicy flavors, often served as tacos with a side of consommé for dipping. A true taste of Mexico in every bite!
