This month we celebrate our succulently tender and authentically seasoned, slow cooked Barbacoa Meats - the latest edition to our Pioneer Canyon™ range!

Barbacoa is a cooking method that involves the slow-cooking of meat over an open fire. This method originated from the Caribbean where it was used by the Taíno people to tenderise and flavour meat.

In addition to making delicious pizza toppings and sandwich/wrap fillers, Barbacoa meats can be used to make many crowd-pleasing mexican dishes including Tacos, Nachos, Enchiladas, Taquitos, Tamales, Tortillas, Salpicon (Spicy Mexican Beef Salad), Chimichangas, Chili Con Carne, Chilaquiles and Burritos...


To use, just defrost & gently shred the oh-so tender meat with a fork - the applications are limitless.

Please find below a list of our current Barbacoa range as well as some mouth-watering menu ideas to inspire you this month.
