Now THIS is the way to make barbacoa! I’m Mexican and I absolutely love how true you stay to our famous dishes! Thank you for showing this to the world!
Seconded. I personally prefer barbacoa made from a cow's tongue instead of the cheeks, but there's no bad barbacoa if it's done properly like this was done.
Interesting history point, when it comes to "TexMex" alot of things came from old Spain, so the Tejas style things like this gentleman is making is has an much background as Mexican style does. 👌
@@jmhaces oooh yes! Tongue barbacoa is good! But I have had some that is really fatty and me personally I don’t like it as much. But if it’s seasoned well, I won’t mind a little bit of fat.
I would love to eat your Mexican taco
Damn straight!!!
First time I see a real gringo cook BARBACOA very, very close to how we cook it in Mexico..... CONGRATS MR KENT ROLLINS..... BIG CHEERS FOR YOU !!!!
In a world of unGodly situations as we now live in…and getting worse…a true pleasure to see your videos and to take us back to some level of normalcy and decency. Thank you Mr. Kent!
I second that
@@googlearchipelago2825 I'll third that...
Well spoken.
I'll 4th that! 😊👋
I'll 5th that sir
Thank you Kent for keeping the authenticity in your videos from the traditional to cooking dishes our ancestor started from the Spanish/Mexican vaqueros cowboys to the now texmex cowboy BBq with our amigo Kent 🤠
Thanks for watching
Your little dance after the first bite made my day! Reminded me of my old Man, may his soul rest in peace
The restoration on the wagon turned out great! You're a man of many talents and skills. It looks like a museum piece but being put to use for what it was built for and in the hands of a master.
Thank you very much!
One of Few People That Will Actually use a Devise for its intended purpose. To many people will Fix/ Restore but, never Use it for Historical Value! Why own it if one can't Use It or Teach From it! They are my Favorite Family
It’s still amazing Kent did most of the work himself. Hats off to you
That's a true cowboy right there!
Hes a strong guy
Respeto, kent 🫡 me as a mexican guy, appreciate that you do our plates the way they gotta be done and you don’t mix some b.s like some other people trying to mix our food, gracias 🙏🏽
Thanks
Kent you did a wonderful job! A beautiful job with that wagon it looks gorgeous. I know you had help so kudos to the ones that helped you but the wagons gorgeous!
Thanks
True enough, very inspiring!
@@CowboyKentRollins You're very welcome. You're inspiring man
@@CowboyKentRollins 0p]]p
Thank you Kent for being ao genuine and keeping the authenticity of Mexican dishes. You sir will forever be invited to all Mexican family functions.
WOW. Might be my favorite KR recipe yet. I like that deep 12" dutch oven! I appreciate your patriotism and spreading love as well.
Thanks so much
Kent I love watching what you do. I grew up cooking this way on the ranch and in the fields. We still do it for enjoyment. One things for sure. My daddy didn’t raise no fool. I don’t need electricity and my family can survive if we have to without all the technology. Maybe these videos will help some younger ones learn to cook let alone live without electricity!!! 😂 Thank you 🙏
Glad you enjoyed
Looks delicious - I am pretty sure I have never had any of this dish.
That wagon looks gorgeous - the wood grain really pops out in the bright sunlight. Well done!!
Thanks Randy
Gettin' hungry! Yeeehaaa...
Greetings from cologne, germany!
Cheers, Arthur 😉
Hello there! Thanks for watching
A taqueria just down the road has the best barbacoa and they do the whole head. Best Tacos around.
The guitar player gave me an old west sound I love, especially watching Cowboy Kent.
Kent I love that you salute our military every video. Keep doing what you do brother.
Thank Ya'll so much !!!
Mexicans all over aprove this!! Keep it up cowboy, keeps making those delish cookings.
Thanks Juan
Mighty fine looking wagon, Kent... Congrats on a job VERY WELL Done !!!
Thanks
My amazing girlfriend from Mexico introduced me to this not long ago.
I enjoyed that Kent. My favorite pepper is the Poblano. One time I was preparing them for a pot of chili but I used the dried kind. I toasted them, removed the seeds, boiled some water and steamed them. Then I pureed them. Man that was the chili I ever made.
Happy to see the old wagon back in action!
TACOS!!!!
Mr. Kent I always watch your videos and I always get so hungry haha greetings from Tijuana Mexico
That looks delicious, Kent! The wagon looks great too! Great post!
Thanks Ronald
Cowboy Kent, I love watching your videos. This one in specific, because it brings me so much nostalgia with the barbacoa tacos. In South Texas, most people eat this every Sunday with salsa, avocado, and some hand made tortillas. Nothing like barbacoa tacos. My grandfather was an ol’ cowboy like yourself, and brought us up with barbacoa. God bless you for making this video 👍🏻💪🏻
Gorgeous work on the wagon!
I still can't get over how beautiful the wagon turned out, I just love the finishes on the different woods & the green. Food looked wonderful as always.
You have made me passionate about my cooking! There is nothing more peaceful than cooking
So true it is
In New Zealand they call this style of cooking a hangi and it is wrapped up in leaves above heated rocks and left to stew and bake!
Great video again mate!
I cooked Barbacoa last year for the first time and it was fantastic Thanks for doing this, finding beef cheek meat was the big problem, but it tastes so different than anything else. Had to mail order the cheeks. I cooked my cheeks indirect in my Green Egg for about 5 hours. I do love your Salsa on most of my food! Love the look of your rebuilt Chuckwagon!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Have you ever had hog jowles best part of the hog
Yep and pickled pigs feet
@@CowboyKentRollins As a Kid, my mom cooked pigs feet ever couple of weeks. I loved them!
pigs feet are good eating... especially if the pig stepped in something sweet... lol
"Easy open" 😂😂😂😂. Love this man.
Aside from the awesome food just listening to your videos as I work feels so peaceful and entertaining. Keep up the good job boss
Thank you! Will do!
Mighty tasty Kent and Shannon. Good one. Great job on the wagon.
Thanks Richard
I agree! Wonderful job on the wagon! The food and cooking process was awesome too!!
Thanks so much!
Im glad you didn't forget the sala,Great Video...And the Chuck box looks outstanding.
I had a roommate from Brownsville,Texas.On a visit to his parents we were instructed to dig a big hole in the backyard. A cows head was going to be pit cooked for Sunday's barbacoa. Dave's Dad prepped the head.Dave and I prepped the hole with coals from mesquite wood. Dave's Dad layered dirt then wet seaweed.Thecowhead was in a wet canvas sack. Cover the head in wet seaweed.Covered seaweed with dirt and more coals.It slow cooked til Saturday afternoon. We dug up the head and Dad finished processing. The meat went into a large cauldron with some spices and just slow cooked til Sunday. The best I ever had.
Looks delicious and tender , happy to see the wagon is back 👍👍🇺🇸
I don't think I commented on just how wonderful the wagon turned out! If I did, well I will just restate it! That wagon is amazing!
awsome! traditional mexican food. ☺
Very tasty it is
Discovered this channel just a little bit ago today with the Big Mac video, been going through loads more all through this morning on my TV while doing my chores, been a real delight to view.
Hope your having a great day, best wishes from canada.
Thanks Kent, good to see the old Stude back in action!
always love your energy
DANG!!! That is one good looking wagon!!!
Kent really is a LEGEND.
Cabeza tacos are amazing. Good choice of cut for this recipe, Cowboy!
Thank you for the video. I absolutely LOVE Barbecoa, but never knew how to make it. This is a Friday morning staple in the construction world. Now I can have it at home.
Are you really gonna dig down with post hole diggers to make this? And risk sand getting in? Not necessary! Love this channel, but good lord.
The wagon looks awesome! You need to find a hobo cart for it. Beautiful job!
Thank you for sharing and teaching us a new way to cook
Thanks Kim for watching
Respect from Canada 🇨🇦
I do a dance every time I tasted your food too. MEXICAN and BBQ are my to favorite food to eat. And the wagon look's beautiful.
as a representative of the Mexican community, I hereby declare Mr. Kent Rollins an honorary Mexican
Excellent receipe. Beautiful scenery.
My dear Cowboy friend. From Mexico here. Barbacoa is a method of cooking meats in an underground pit, most is made with goat and sheep which yields the most delicious dish. There's a Kettle with chick peas, onion, garlic and guajillo chiles, under a Grid grill, on the grid, the rubbed meat is placed and fully covered with agave cactus leaves which have been griddled to make them soft. It's then covered with dirt and left overnight. The meat falls apart and all the juices make a consomme in the kettle that would wake up cowboys after a fun Friday night on the town. The soup made with this dish is called Birria. Greetings to all!
Thanks Adolfo for watching
Your chuck wagon looks beautiful.
Thanks so much
Nothing better than to be cooking out in the open range 💯 God bless you always king of chefs
Love this guy. So wholesome
I live in Oregon and there probably isn't a real Chuck Wagon within 2500 miles from my front door. I watched the two videos where you repaired your Chuck Wagon, and I honestly didn't know that they were still used today. I assumed your Chuck Wagon was a prop and wasn't actually still used in the field. Old traditions are the best traditions! Well done.
The wagon refresh looks amazing.
Oh man barbacoa tacos with cilantro and onions would be so good. Add a Big Red soda pop to drink and you’re in Heaven or Texas.
Kent, i still cant get over that chuck wagon restoration, it looks so nice!! I kinda want one now, theres just nothing like cooking outside!!
Im just glad theres old timers like you keeping these pieces of history around! i appreciate it and if i come across one of these you best believe i will do as you did!
I may have another one to fix up and sell pretty soon
@@CowboyKentRollins **hat tip** oh dont do that to me sir! dont tempt me! 🤣
Thankyou Shannon!!!
Interesting! I've never even heard of this before. Thank you for sharing.
God bless all here.
It’s the final taste and dance for me hahaha let’s go Kent! Get it
Being from Texas, I’m used to the beef cheek Barbacoa. Then, I married my Mexican wife and ate the REAL Barbacoa in Querétaro Mx for the first time, it changed me forever… 🤠😋🤠😋
Nogales was a staple to add to many dishes when times were tough. Diced nopales with eggs, sliced in strips to add to a taco, on refried beans the combinations are endless for a filling meal that's still tasty and stretch your buck for this underrated and cheap veggie.
We fry them like okra as well
Hey Mr. Kent love the way that wagon turned out! I just got back from 10 days in Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota and Wyoming and boy did I think about you and riding on that trail. I told my wife that any cowboy today would come running to your wagon for food and fellowship. Thank you so much for your great recipes and your entertaining content.
Mr. Rollins you did a fine job on that ChuckWagon.
It's gorgeous. I know a lot of hard work went into restoring it.
Those Tacos looks delish! 😋
Thank you, God bless you!
I am so glad I found your channel its magnificent.....I'm blessed
That looks great Kent. And the wagon looks awesome. I know you are very happy with it. Have a great day!
Thanks Timothy
If you don't have/can't get napales (cacti, plural of cactus), Dutch ovens often come with a trivet to use inside to prevent burning/sticking. You can get trivet both used (the good, old kind) or new from places like eBay and Amazon, Lodge offers trivet as well as other makers. Using veggies is a great method but not always desirable or feasible. I make chuck and shoulder roasts all the time and my trusty trivet has served me well.
Thanks for the recipe, good quality tacos are a staple around here.
As for preventing grit in your food (if you don't have foil), I have a bench brush (you can use a natural bristle paint brush) and I brush the top edges all around the lid before rotating/removing the lid of your oven, this gets 98.9% of the ash and grit of the edges of your oven. Natural bristle brushes won't melt when you touch something hot.
For a cover, a small sized oil drip pan from the auto parts store is inexpensive (just a few dollars) and the right size for the job. And you can put it under your car when you're not cooking in the ground!
I've been barbecuing for 30 years. I've never had a complaint so I guess I might be decent at it. I have used every seasoning imaginable. Kent your original seasoning is THE best for brisket hands down. I order the big bags from yall and use empty seasoning containers for your stuff. A shaker with no label, only a big KR marked with a permanent marker. I reach for it more times than not. Thank you sir.
Kent you are a A master of what you do .I enjoy what you & your bribe do .thank ya'll for being a breath of fresh air in these times
Kent your videos are amazing and I am Blessed to watch your videos, you are respectful and humble. I hope you do a video on making migas Mexican style or carne guisada stay Blessed kent!!!!
you could speed things up by wrapping the outside of the dutch oven with foil. I'm hungry already 😁
I love the way the wagon turned out great job!!!
Thanks a bunch!
This is such an interesting cook. Thanks so much!
Always enjoy this cooking style.
Beef cheeks are great in barbacoa but try adding beef lips to it and it comes out great. In Northeast México the original barbacoa is whole beef head cooked underground. Now that’s good eating. Saludos Mr. Rollins
This one Is Definitely Going to Be Used Next March on my Camping trip to Texas!!!! Wagon Looks So Beautiful ! On that Note! I Tip my Hat to You and Family for bringing These Videos! Nothing Like Old School! Wagons to Cooking! Friends and Family!
When Kent says it’s the best tacos you’ll eat he ain’t kidding. My lil niece will absolutely, positively tear up some barbacoa. This lil girl will ask me to make her some for her lunch for school for the week she loves it so much. Now my recipe is a tiny bit different from Kent’s since I unfortunately don’t have the same facilities that he does. Usually I do it this way
1 Chuck Roast
1 can of adobo peppers with the sauce
I use a similar season blend to what he does and don’t be stingy on it, seriously coat that thing in it just like he said
I use apple cider vinegar myself to break down the meat but that’s out of habit for pulled meats
I leave it in the slow cooker for roughly 8 hours or so and it pulls right apart easily.
Mmm mmm mmm 😋! Boy if that don’t make the cowboy dance nuthin won’t!!!!
This is my most favorite dish. Yummmm
Kent, I searched all through my Williams Sonoma kitchen tool catalog and was unable to locate the handy kitchen tool you used to char the peppers. Love your shows. Thanks for always recognizing veterans on every program.
Annette, well there's that other boutique cooking supply house, Tractor Supply they have one (Mr. Heater, it's true).
Anyway, your reply was clever. I did laugh👍👍👍😁😁😁
Kent, Shan, I love you guys but that wagon needs a name. I suggest Chuck 😆😆🤷🇺🇸👍🏻
This is so interesting. My very 1st episode of my UA-cam channel was Barbacoa in a Dutch oven.
You won't a more wholesome channel and yt community. Welcome! I use this channel to cook with almost weekly.
Thank you/ Kent!
Thank you Kent. From an Army Vet. Was going to see you in Ohio but the covid hit and things got canceled. Hope you get back around here again.
My neighbors when I was growing up would cook the entire cows head in a burlap sack in the ground. Best Barbacoa ever.
Mexican food is Cultural Heritage of Humanity, and that’s the way. Great job, homs!
Dude, A.Bourdain would be so proud of you!
Great one, Cowboy Kent!
Kent, i have to tell you not only have you given me a new dish to make but it looks fun. Can't wait to start the process...Thanks a lot.
Hope you enjoy
Your the man Mr.Rollins 👋 from Phoenix Arizona mmmm!!😋 🇺🇸
Kent!!!! No more red frame around the thumbnail. Makes me think I watched it already almost missed this one
So great to see the beautiful wagon back in use. Will definitely try the slow cooker version of this as we don't have a place to dig a whole. Wish your video's had scratch and sniff ♥
Mis respetos..Sr... sigo su canal...y cada vez va probando..nuevas recetas y eso es admirable. Lo bonito de la comida es que puedes darle tu toque y fusionar la comida ,,un saludo cordial desde cd juarez chihuahua México 🇲🇽 bendiciones y mucho éxito siempre mis mejores deseos y admiración.
Fascinating way to cook. This looks delicious! I can't believe how tender it is. Enjoyed. Great job! God bless you both and the pups.
Yummy, Barbacoa for my tummy. Everything you cook is so good. I’ve never had this but it’s now on the menu for a future meal with the family. Thank you Kent. I have a request. I just recently acquired a vintage cast iron bean pot but have never used one. I would love to see some of your cooking demonstrating how best to use a cast iron bean pot. Thanks again for honoring the men and women, active and retired, of our military.
Yummy, Thank you for sharing 💪
