Adobo Birria Marinade

This has an excellent taste and can be used in a number of recipes, but be aware that it’s noticeably sweet and has some heat. It also makes a great dipping sauce for tacos, enchiladas,and the like.

So I was trolling TikTok and getting depressed with political posts and dances I can no longer do when I was hit with an ad for Biria Taco balls. Since I trust TikTok marketplace about the same as I do my high school friends that failed science and now give medical advice; I searched Amazon for a real option. I decided to buy this little gem and try it. I decided to test it on a cheap piece of pork loin I got on BOGO from my local Publix (FL!). I cut up 1.5 sweet onions, diced the 2lb loin into manageable sizes, 1/2 the container, and about 1.5 cups of water (could've done 2). Placed the crock pot on "set it and forget it" for 5 hours. He's my review: Smell/Look 5/5 The sauce looked potent and flavorful right out of the plastic jar. The robust color told me this was made by a 65yr old nana from Mexico. After about 2 hours, I couldn't stand it and had to do a full sniff test 👃 ... I wish this was a cologne. Taste 5/5* Wait ... What was that? That wasn't supposed to be so sweet and flavorful. I'm assuming I put to many sweet onions in the batch because the taste was sweet and delicious (not what I was expecting). I thought someone tampered with the sauce but then I remembered the crap-ton of onions I added which might have adjusted the DNA. I went ahead and added oil to a hot pan, dipped my soft shell in the heavenly juices, added some meat, fresh ground white sharp cheese, waited a minute, folded, and patiently awaited greatness. I did this 3x and then created a consume bowl to dip my prizes in. WHOLLY F***BALLS BATMAN ... Delicious 😋. Value ??/?? Who cares! I ran straight to these comments like a paparazzi with a secret so I could share the "tea". Damn this was good. Then I placed an order for 3 more jars. Summary: This was so damn simple and flavorful that I can't wait to try this on a real roast. What did I learn? 1/2 jar + 2 cups of water for 2lbs of meat. Add more water if you want more drip. Add celantro and raw onions for texture. Add a splash of Sriracha, less onion to reduce sweetness and add a kick. Enjoy!

Absolutely divine! I did not realize it was liquid when I purchased it, thought it was dry seasoning. But, it turned out great. The bottle does not last 14-15 uses however.

Gosh, this sauce is incredible for adding flavor to my refried bean recipe. It's actually time to order this item again. Atrue quality product.

Tasty but not quite as good as the bombs. But much less expensive.

This Chef Merito Birria Marinade has a rich and authentic Mexican flavor that makes preparing birria much easier while still delivering delicious results that taste homemade and full of seasoning. The blend has a very balanced flavor with mild heat that adds depth without being overwhelmingly spicy, making it great for tacos, stews, quesabirria, and other traditional dishes. It mixes easily with water or broth and saves a lot of preparation time compared to making marinades completely from scratch. The seasoning works especially well with beef and creates tender, flavorful meat with a rich aroma while cooking. One container also goes a long way because it can be used for multiple meals, which adds great value. Overall, this marinade offers a great combination of convenience, authentic flavor, and versatility, making it an excellent choice for anyone who enjoys homemade-style birria dishes.

smalls good havent use it yet

Really good flavor, not too spicy.

I haven't cooked with it yet but we did taste it and it's very tasty, the seal was intact and it arrived quickly I'm looking forward to cooking it with it soon

Excellent for beef birria tacos. It is highly concentrated.

Used this with a beef blade AAA it turned out amazing . It’s salty but adding water as it cooks helps

I LOVE this stuff. It has become a big staple in our home. Yum!

Came broken. Sauce everywhere. Ruined everything. Can’t get a refund or return on it
