View ProfileChef Ruben calls these his 'Birria Shorty Tacos' because in them he reimagines classic, crowd-pleasing birria tacos with beef short ribs in place of the traditional goat. Hearty short ribs are braised until pull-apart tender in a flavorful, savory broth, then piled into soft corn tortillas. The tacos are paired with a light and fresh 'esquites' a.k.a. Mexican street corn-inspired corn salad with Cotija cheese, cilantro, and green onions, that can be used as a taco topping or enjoyed on its own. Anyway you serve it, this dish is decadent and ridiculously delicious.
