At El Camino, the Short Rib Birria Tacos feature tender braised short rib tucked into tortillas, often paired with a side of consommé and Mexican-inspired garnishes.[11] Using short rib for the birria gives the filling a richer, more buttery texture than standard cuts, and the restaurant frames the dish as one of its signature plates.[11] Each taco balances the succulence of the meat with the structure of the tortilla, making for a satisfying mix of soft interior and slight exterior crispness. Regulars frequently single out these tacos alongside the brisket enchiladas as emblematic of the kitchen’s approach to bold, slow-cooked flavors.[11]
