Fall is here, which means it’s comfort food season. Many people consider Mexican food in general to be their comfort food, and visit their favorite restaurants in Derry throughout the year. However, some dishes are better suited to fall weather than others. Warm, hearty meals that are generously spiced are what most of us crave in the fall, and the Mexican dish that perfectly fits that description is birria. Birria is one of our specialties at Los Reyes Street Tacos. It’s a delicious and satisfying taco or burrito filling. If you really want to indulge in comfort food, you can go for our birria-topped fries.
Birria has the perfect blend of warmth and spice that makes it the ideal comfort food for fall.
The Flavors of Birria
Birria originated in the Mexican state of Jalisco, and brings the best of the region’s flavors and traditions to the table (literally). The slow-cooked beef is braised in a rich marinade of dried chilies, garlic, herbs, and spices until it’s fall-apart tender. When it’s in tacos, the corn tortillas are grilled to crispy perfection and served with the excess broth for dipping to give maximum flavor.
A Warm and Tasty Experience
Whether you choose the traditional birria tacos or opt for a burrito or our birria fries, you’ll feel the warmth right away. The rich flavor and delectable spice mix is just what you need to warm you up on a chilly fall day. The combination of smoked chilies, cumin, clove, bay leaf, and vinegar creates a complex flavor that’s earthy, comforting, and just spicy enough.
Celebrate the Season
Birria is often served at celebrations, and fall has plenty of opportunities to celebrate. There’s Halloween, All Saints’ Day, Día de los Muertos (all in a row!), and Thanksgiving. If you’re celebrating any of those holidays or you have a birthday or anniversary coming up, birria is the perfect addition to your celebratory spread.
