Jesus - we have several places in Houston that make good barbacoa. In Texas, however (at least around Houston), most barbacoa seems to be made from the cabeza de vaca. I understand in central Mexico most barbacoa is from lamb, and from the entire animal, not just the head.
Failiure, failiure.... oh my, oh my. What can we do with you? besides sending you again and again until you are so overweight that you canīt return to Texas.
You are right, the barbacoa is made with the whole animal, you would prefer to eat the voluminous hindlegs of a "borrego" instead a bit of cow's cheek.
But I canīt remember which other delicacy is made with the cow's head.
