Piedmont Barbacoa Taco

Method

1. Gather and prep everything first: corn tortillas, lime, cilantro and set within reach of the stove.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the shallots in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the barbacoa and let it tahini, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Stir in the olive oil along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Add the vegetable stock and let it reduce until it just coats the back of a spoon.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with a handful of herbs right before serving.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
