    Not authentic, you use chopped onions, chop cilantro and chopped jalapenos in the consume/soup. And forgot to add the oaxaca cheese when frying the tacos. Not enough oil to fry tacos properly.

    If you don't want to scrub any pan for 15 minutes, fill up with soap water and put back on fire for 5 minutes, then use tongs and scrub pad to clean pan under water. This is how we do it in the restaurant. Especially after having to reduce sauces for and hour.

    I Need it, Chef! After reading some of the comments, it is apparent that you need a little more lilt in your voice, you're just not pulling the, Whiney, Bitchy quotient, that you used to. Thank You, Sir. I've learned a lot from you!!!

    May I HIGHLY recommend trying Oaxaca cheese? It melts like mozzarella, you can pull it like string cheese or grate it. When it oozes out of the tortilla it gets delightfully crispy and adds just a yummy note to the Birria. The first time I made Birria I ventured to my closest Mexican market and bit the bullet and bought the Oaxaca and Cotija (which i sprinkled on the outside). I went to the mexican market for 2 reasons: 1 – my shop had the cheeses but they were american brands and I was uncertain and 2 – low and behold, the price of these cheeses at the mexican market was 1/4 of the price at my usual grocery store. My son is a chef and he was delighted with the result. He said that the cotija acted like a magic shell on the outside (it doesn't melt) and just Made the dish. As John says, I really hope you try this!

    These look so good and I would love to make them, but my family can't handle spice, so I haven't made them . How spicy is the chili mix? And can I substitute with other chili's that aren't spicy?

    Chef, I made this for some friends about a month ago. I received a couple "These are the best tacos I've ever had" comments. This version is a winner. I think I might try the combo of Ancho & Guajillo chilies next time.

    In your opinion, Chef John, how would this work with a Holy Trinity mirepoix instead of a French(ish) mirepoix? Or should I simply be the Elvis Francois of my mirepoix?
