Barbacoa Santa Rosa Review - Pilot Knob - Austin - The Infatuation

"Barbacoa Santa Rosa is only open on the weekends—and often sells out early—but it’s absolutely worth setting a morning alarm to line up with the rest of the crowd at this Pilot Knob trailer serving excellent lamb, goat, and beef barbacoa. You can order by the pound or by the taco, and we can all but guarantee that whatever route you go, you’ll wish you had ordered just a little bit more. Save yourself the regret and get a few tacos, a big cup of hot consome to sip on, and extra meat to go. It’s slow-cooked and tender, and it goes exceptionally well with a dousing of bright green salsa. Our only complaint is that the generic tortillas are the weak link on an otherwise star-studded plate." - Nicolai McCrary
