Head tacos disappoint due to their lack of flavor at “Tacos Mis Tíos” in Tecate

Meanwhile, the carne asada taco had a big plus that helped it a lot

On this episode of Una Mordida Tacos Tecate, our host, Chef Danny Betancourt went to “Tacos Mis Tíos” located at José María Morelos y Pavón 877, Industrial. On this occasion he tried two tacos: a carne asada taco and a head taco, both priced at $1.5 dollars ($30 pesos).

Head Taco

This taco has head beef, onion, coriander, green sauce, and was served on two packaged tortillas. The first thing to note is that the tortillas felt thick, in contrast with other tortillas that are made like this. When he gave his first bite, Chef Danny said that all the ingredients felt like a “paste” due to how the softness of the meat and tortillas mixed together.

The tortilla’s softness is also because it was steamed and that same steam hydrates it. Chef Danny was not able to perceive the sauce in the taco due to its lack of flavor and this also happened with the meat. According to our host, the taco was missing a “push” which is why it gets a rating of 6.5.

Price: $1.5 dollars ($30 pesos)

Carne Asada Taco

The first thing to note about this taco was the size of the tortilla and the fact that they were handmade. This taco has carne asada (grilled meat), coriander, watery guacamole, and huevona sauce. The carne asada had a good size, as it was served in slices, and they weren’t very small, but its texture was a little harder than usual.

Chef Danny stated that the coal flavor could be tasted very easily on the meat, while the maize flavor in the tortilla was detected easily. The huevona sauce also played a good role here since it had a good flavor even though it is a very easy sauce to make. The only thing that did not help this taco was its “watery guacamole” which is why it gets a rating of 7.3.

Price: $1.5 dollars ($30 pesos)
