[@TheDjurze]

@@SandraNLN Probably because it's the same song, this is just the song from the beginning, the old intro being about a minute into the song

[@NieroshaiTheSable]

@@TheDjurze Probably means it sounded MORE so than before. Lots of people are pointing out how this version is a bit... much, and we can't all be first-timers on the channel.

[@TheDjurze]

@@NieroshaiTheSable What I mean is that it's the same song he's always used, it's just a different part of the song. You can check out the entire song in his description. In this video the song starts from the beginning, but normally it only plays the middle section which is a lot "cleaner". I just think it's funny how different the song feels when it's played from the start

I can’t explain it but the new intro music sounds like I’m having a nightmare

[@DaniJHollis]

To me. It's because we're used to a clipped condensed version. The extended version sound like overload, overwhelming, panicky, stuck in a loop we can't escape from--

[@mmori673]

yeah it gives me sensory overload

[@mohq9573]

Yup they chose a more busy, active part of the music and the volume is turned up. less room to breathe in a short intro like the old music gave us.

[@potatopatch5202]

That’s a little harsh but I agree it caught me off guard. Kinda prefer it tho

[@bathl]

The loop is a little jarring when it spends most of the intro unresolved

[@FlyingGerman]

This might be a controversial opinion, but I'd categorize this as slightly, slightly more complex than a basic recipe.

[@spiv_gennedy]

It does feel like it's treading dangerously close to binging territory. To be fair I have made the Julia Childs beef burgundy more than a couple times after seeing his episode on it so...

[@agw1caveman]

We've been through 100 episodes, we should at least be intermediate by now :)

[@gribbly500]

Made this yesterday! Fantastic recipe, only issue I had is that Babish didn't cover his roasting tray, which after three hours in the over meant most of the liquid evaporated. I was able to bring it back just by adding a bit more water but if you make this, I would suggest coving it in a dutch oven or aluminium foil. Maybe take the lid off for the last 20-30 mins of cooking only to put some colour on the meat, and be extra careful if your oven is fan-forced. Thanks Andrew and team!

I was going to say the same thing, but I started thinking about it and maybe it's a CA thing, but everywhere I have had them it just says Birria or Queso Birria and it's always beef. Like there are so many small mom and pop/mexican family owned restaurants and food trucks here and I never see anyone using goat.

[@dellarosa1716]

That joke only now makes sense to me. I’d forgotten about that.

[@JBrambleBerry]

My wife says to use oil cause you want to fry the chili's. When you bite in you want a *squish*. Also if you're doing quesabirria you don't put the cheese on top, you make a layer between the meat and tortilla. Also more traditionally uses goat and not beef but thats harder to get ahold of for most places

The intro music sounds remarkably similar to the music playing in the foyer of the Restaurant At the End of the Universe Fun fact, the Milliways Foyer music behaves like an irrational number: it continues infinitely yet somehow never repeats itself, and gives you the smallest hint of feeling that you're staring into endless unknowable madness. Not sure how this version measures up, but it's looking promising so far! Also, the tacos look great

[@andrewkong3154]

I grew up in a predominantly Latino community here in Illinois and I didn't realize anybody ate beef birria until a few years ago. I've always had it with goat or lamb, and sometimes chickpeas. Same with menudo, lengua, cabeza/ cesos, buche/tripas. I didn't realize that it isn't widely consumed until I got older. I just thought everybody ate that stuff growing up. I love Mexican food. It is similar to Asian food for me, in that it hits every flavor profile. I wish nothing but more exposure for Mexican food and culture for the general public so mom and pap shops gain more success and appreciation since so many of them have been working so hard for years and years.

For anyone whose never seen this meal, You can make this in half the time, babish took the long route.

[@PL-du8gq]

With your fresh tortillas, you could have set them on the flat top, ladled some of the birria beef tallow. If you run out of beef tallow, a mix of olive oil and consume works. Once the tortilla is cooked to a sturdy enough point (wont fall apart), add the cheese first to melt (mozzarella works here), then add the meat, a small pinch of salt on the meat, onion, and cilantro (Babish is "allergic"). Once the tortilla is getting a little crunchy, fold the tortilla to for a taco. Making quesa birria tacos can be very messy, but very tasty.

I literally made this yesterday wow! But I really wanna try the authentic birria taco to compare the two!

[@mikeychido6937]

As an actual mexican who basically eats birria almost every 8 days, this is pretty accurate! Looks delicious.

Where is the variation

[@Dane_Mane]

As an actual Mexican, it's not even the right kind of meat.

@@Dane_Mane I’m also mexican, and here in Tijuana we don’t discriminate the tipe of meat you can use It can be beef, pork, traditionally lamb, or even chicken

as another mexican, one thing ill take points off is: no double Tortilla

[@Skipti_LLC]

Honestly half the reason I watch this show is because I'm more open to trying new foods at restaurants when I've gotten to see what goes into them. Thanks to your, I have a new favorite Mexican place even though I grew up a very picky eater!

You severely exaggerated the word “Basic” in this episode.

[@oakridg625]

Too many steps?

He's said on earlier episodes that the "Basic" in the title is in reference to the dish being prepared in comparison to other recipes and variants of the dish, not as a qualifier for ease of preparation as a whole.

Theres just something about that background music that just hits the spot!

[@MrMsal1984]

Burris is usually made with goat but occasionally beef or mutton, corn tortillas are easy to make and having the right tool makes it easy to make them thin.

[@thatguyinc9141]

If you ever in LA, I’d recommend Teddy’s Red Tacos. Best Birria Taco spot around

[@chiggensandich23]

Birria los socios is my fave in LA

[@agsilver2009]

For those who go all out on this and still want the handmade tortillas, a pinch of corn starch will give them enough flexibility to not tear upon folding. Edit: in the mix not on top of the tortillas
