Birria Taco Seasoning is an impressive balance of traditional Mexican spices and herbs, combined into one savory blend. It is also called birria seasoning, birria taco spices or birria powder.

Birria Taco Seasoning emerged from the kitchens of Jalisco, Mexico, and is based on the hearty, heavily seasoned stew served at Jalisco-area celebrations, like weddings or baptisms. Traditionally, birria was made with goat’s meat, but today, it is primarily made with braised beef or pork. It is still served as a stew, though it’s now often served on a cheese-stuffed taco that’s crisped in the fat skimmed off the braising liquid.  A consommé comes on the side for an extra boost of juicy flavor.

Businesses that frequently purchase Birria Taco Seasoning are:

How to Use

Our Birria Taco Seasoning is the perfect blend to use for Quesabirria Tacos. It is also excellent on any slow-cooked meat; try it on brisket, ribs, or chuck roast, or use to season a whole leg of lamb. Rub onto a butterflied flank steak and roll around a stuffing of roasted chiles and pepper jack cheese; bind with butcher’s twine and grill. Stir into homemade Mexican rice.  Use on Enmoladas for a Mexican “street food” treat.  Blend into black bean cakes or as the seasoning in Savory Corn Fritters. Work this blend into your chili seasoning rotation. Whisk with lime juice and oil to make a dressing for Tex-Mex pasta salad. Mix into cream cheese and make stuffing for jalapeño poppers. It can be used for grilled or roasted vegetables, stirred into salad dressings, or tossed over beans. Use it wherever you’d like regular taco seasoning—with a twist.

Birria Taco Seasoning pairs well with beef, pork, chicken, pinto and black beans, corn, peppers, and rice. Makes wonderful tacos, burritos, chili, tamales, pancakes, soups, stews, and roasted vegetables.
