Birria Burger
Birria is a spicy and flavoursome Mexican beef stew, that’s slow-cooked until the meat is tender, this creates a
juicy sauce which can be smothered on your dish. Traditionally it is served in a Taco with a dipping pot on the
side made from the juices, but why stop there when this dish is so well loved?
