Barbacoa means ‘barbeque’ in Spanish, but it’s not as straightforward as that, Chef! Imagine the best braised beef you’ve tasted – with a Mexican barbeque flavour twist. Our recipe replaces tacos with a bed of fluffy jasmine rice. The beef is cooked in a beautiful blend of orange juice, a special UCOOK spice blend, tomato passata, a rich beef stock & garlic, which is soaked up by sweet corn & black beans.
