Birriería “La Victoria” Don Nicho y Raúl

The stainless steel counter at Birriería La Victoria stays crowded long before the sun hits the street in Santa Teresita. Don Nicho started serving goat birria here over fifty years ago, cooking the meat in clay pots buried in an earth oven. Raúl joined his father behind the counter, keeping the same recipe involving charred chiles and slow, low heat. Most mornings, customers line up for the consommé and tender goat meat, watching the staff pull the slow-cooked order from the pot.
