Oven-roasted goat birria in tangy consomé or tacos
"There’s nothing more welcoming on a Sunday morning than the sight of Héctor Ramírez’s modified pizza oven, as he removes baking sheets full of blistered slabs of birria tatemada de chivo, or oven-roasted goat birria. Ramírez’s recipe comes from the northwestern highlands of Jalisco. Tender, charred goat birria comes in tangy consomé, or separately to make your own tacos with corn tortillas. Slurp the meat stock separately, and for a dollar more, get the maciza, the connoisseur's choice — a meaty, juicy boneless cut from the leg." - Bill Esparza
"Full transparency—not much will get us out of bed before 8am on a weekend. This goat birria tatemada is a major exception. Birrieria El Jaliscenece is a weekend-only goat roast that sets up at the corner of Olympic Blvd. and Spence St. in Boyle Heights. You don't have to be a morning person to feel excited to be here, especially once you get a whiff of the Jalisco-style chivo sweating inside the oven. El Jalisciense has a two-stage cooking process that's responsible for this birria's silky, fatty meat and wonderfully crackly skin (enjoy it with either fresh tortillas or as a taco dorado). This place only stays open until they run out, so come get it while it's hot. Cash only." - Sylvio Martins

"This busy Boyle Heights street stand down the way from Tacos Y Birria La Unica sells out often, so look for the large birria de chivo banner when arriving early." - Farley Elliott
