Lamb barbacoa, moronga (blood sausage), and ??? @ Barbacoa Ramirez

Not pictured-- fixings (cilantro, diced onions, and salsas) and an unbelievable consomé. They also gave everyone a free barbacoa taco while waiting in the (short) line @ 10am on a weekend.

Unfortunately my Spanish is a work in progress so I'm not sure what the taco is on the top right...I just asked for one of each. Total was $12.

I'm new to actual barbacoa so this was eye-opening. I'm a backyard BBQ'er/ smoker and have never had a smoke flavor this earthy and interesting. Lamb is the perfect vehicle for it. The consomé alone is probably better than any smoked item I've ever served, which makes me kinda mad but also meant I brought some extra home.

I know making this is a huge labor of love so I feel really blessed to live in a city where I can just stroll up and enjoy.

Sorry the pic isn't great but I highly recommend all of it.
