The Barbacoa Queen of Los Angeles | Street Food Icons

-We're going to cook this on the ground for about like six or seven hours right here just behind us in my mom's backyard. ♪♪ We're outside my parent's house right now, right here in Baldwin Park, a little bit outside of L.A. area, but we're still here. [ Laughs ] Okay. This is the house. Right now, what we're doing is just preparing for our barbacoa. There's my dad. He's chopping up some agave leafs. Yup. Alright. So, we're right here. This lamb was probably alive a couple of hours ago. I'll say like maybe five ago, because even the meat is warm. If I would explain it in a certain way, it taste like brown gold, you know? -This barbacoa is coming from my parents -- my mom, my dad. They're bringing back the tradition from Mexico, [speaking Spanish] -We sell everything. We're just not going to kill a living animal and just use some parts of it. It's just going to be a waste of life. ♪♪ ♪♪ -I'm proud of my parents -- my mom, my dad. It's so much hard work they put up for us. -I feel like so special, you know? I feel like my parents gave us -- gave us a gift. ♪♪ We will smoke weed and eat barbacoa. One time I was, like, so faded I was like, "Wow, this goes together." You know. Barbacoa and Kush, you put it together, it makes barbakush. And both of them are bomb.
