Does anyone have any tips for making beef barbacoa? I've got a source for the head and banana leaves, so I'm looking for seasoning and cook time/temp.

I am going to cook it on a pit. If I can get my hands on a goat or sheep head then I might cook that too. I don't plan to eat the brains and I'll probably give the tongue to my mother (that just doesn't sound right). I know that just going with the cheek meat would be easier, but I like to do things the hard way.
not to sound dumb, Bob, do people actually eat the eyeballs? I've never heard of it.
My original plan was to cook it similar to a pork butt. Unwrapped for several hours, then wrap for the last few hours. I would probably have it in a foil pan when it is unwrapped.
Sure do. Just like some eat fish eyeballs. If you have ever eaten the marrow in beef bones, they taste just like that. :shock:
Remember, I'm the one that came up with the Innards Throwdown.:grin:
Funny thing is we fight over em! On a corn tort with just salt. Little bit of "snap" too..........:twisted:The texture....is unique:mrgreen:
If you are able. Post some pics of that! I would love to see a play by play.
