Masa Barbacoa with Diablo Sauce

Barbacoa is a style of cooked meat preparation originating in Latin America, with an indigenous variation found in Mexico. Traditionally, it involves slow-cooking meats like whole sheep, cows, beef heads, or goats in a pit or earth oven, often covered with agave leaves. The method can also refer to meat steamed until tender. This preparation is known for its high fat content and strong flavor, frequently accompanied by onions and cilantro.
