Bold-spiced short ribs cooked low and slow until fall-apart tender, tucked into warm corn tortillas and piled high with bright salsa, tangy pickled onions, fresh cilantro, and crumbled cotija. Smoky, juicy, and layered with flavor — this is the taco that redefines the standard.
Nutritional Features
Short ribs are a deeply nourishing cut, rich in protein, iron, zinc, and collagen-building amino acids that support joint and connective tissue health. Corn tortillas keep this naturally gluten-free, while fresh cilantro and salsa contribute vitamin C and lycopene to balance the richness of the meat.
How To Pick Short Ribs
Choose short ribs where there is more meat than fat.
Ingredient Swaps
You can use other toppings for the taco.
