Barbacoa

Cultural Context

Barbacoa has its roots in Mexico, traditionally made with lamb or goat, and cooked in a pit covered with maguey leaves. It symbolizes communal gatherings and celebrations, often served at special occasions. Today, barbacoa has evolved and is enjoyed globally, with variations that include different meats and cooking methods.
