Chipotle’s Barbacoa Copycat Recipe, That’s right now you can make barbacoa as good as Chipotle’s at home! Perfecting this recipe started as a bet… while my husband Scott and his good friend Steve were enjoying one of their many grad school barbacoa lunches from Chipotle, Steve made the comment, “I don’t think even Jan could make it this good.” Oh, the challenge was on! I searched the web and found several recipes claiming to be the real deal but I decided to base mine off a copycat recipe I found on Todd Wilbur’s Top Secret Recipes. So how did it come out? Let’s just say Steve ate his words and several of these burritos : Heads up, you’ll need a crockpot for this one., Who ever wrote this recipe has never had real barbacoa. It should be made from COWTONGUE. Not pot roast., As others have said, the meat has an overpowering vinegar taste. I followed the recipe exactly. I had chipotle barbacoa and this to try side by side. No comparison. I hate to throw away 4lbs of meat so maybe i will try to fix it with bbq sauce since it already is vinegary. Will be looking for another recipe.
