Barbacoa de Cabeza is a slow cooked dish prepared with parts from the head of a cow, such as the cheeks. Popular in South Texas, I've adapted the dish to be cooked using your Slow Cooker, Pressure Cooker, or Smoker/Oven Combo to create this tasty dish.

  1. a la Slow Cooker DIRECTIONS:
  2. Combine all the non meat ingredients and pour into slow cooker
  3. Trim most of the fat off the cheek meat and place meat into Slow Cooker
  4. Cook on High for 5 or 6 hours or until meat is tender
  5. Check on liquid level to make sure meat doesn't dry out. Adding liquid as needed (broth/water), as you don't want it overly wet, just moist as the purpose is to steam the meat.
  6. Remove meat from cooker and chop into small pieces
  7. Serve with Tortillas (flour or corn...tastes better with corn), chopped cilantro/onion garnish and salsa; guacamole is optional
  8. a la Pressure Cooker DIRECTIONS:
  9. Combine all the non meat ingredients and pour into pressure cooker
  10. Place a grill or steamer basket at the bottom of the pot
  11. Trim most of the fat off the cheek meat and place meat into the pressure cooker on top of steam basket
  12. Add enough liquid to fill cooker 1/2 way (with meat in it)
  13. Cook on high pressure for 60-90 minutes
  14. Pull meat out and use reduced liquid to moisten meat as needed
  15. Serve with Tortillas (flour or corn...tastes better with corn), chopped cilantro/onion garnish and salsa; guacamole is optional
  16. a la Smoker/Oven DIRECTIONS:
  17. Mix together the ingredients OMITTING the liquid smoke, you're using the real thing.
  18. Rub spices into all of the meat
  19. Marinate in the refrigerator overnight or at least 4 hours
  20. Prepare your smoker to 225 degrees
  21. Smoke meat 4 hours (1.5 hours X 1lb meat) between 225 and 275 degrees
  22. Check the smoker after 2 hours and add additional boiling water to the pan, if necessary. When done, the internal temperature of the beef should be 160 - 170 degrees.
  23. Place the beef in a foil baking pan, seal it with heavy duty aluminum foil, and place it in an oven preheated to 325 degrees for an additional hour and 45 minutes
  24. Remove the package from the oven, and place it in a large, paper, grocery bag. Fold the bag tightly to seal it and leave it for 45 minutes. (If your foil pan is too large for one bag, use two, overlapping them to completely cover the pan)
  25. Remove the meat from the roasting pan and chop into small pieces
  26. Serve with Tortillas (flour or corn...tastes better with corn), chopped cilantro/onion garnish and salsa; guacamole is optional

    Made the pressure cooker batch this weekend. I marinaded the meat overnight in a lime, garlic, oregano, mesquite smoked mojo. I steamed the meat in the pressure cooker and served it up with the taqueria style corn tortillas, and some chopped onion/cilantro...it was divine.

        In south texas we grew up eating barbacoa seasoned with salt and black pepper only and with hot sauce or canned pickled jalapenos.
