Bought it for my bedridden mother for tacos, but it was too watery, so her caregiver made it into a soup, which was very tasty. Review: Some varieties are great, but the beef is absolutely terrible & a waste of money!!! - So disappointed with the beef version of this chilorio from the Chata brand. I've purchased the chicken, turkey and pork varieties several time and they are great for a quick, easy to fix meal on a busy day. Plus it is perfect to have on hand in case of emergencies or for camping. My family really likes the pork for tacos so I even have it on automatic shipments through Subscribe & Save. I added a case of the beef chilorio to my subscription and it is nothing at all like the others. I don't know if I received part of a bad batch or what, but this is definitely not worth buying at any price. I don't know how this would have passed any sort of quality control. There is roughly 1/6 cup of meat (maybe about 1 1/2 ounces, equating to less than one serving) in each pouch and the rest is some sort of tasteless broth. This doesn't even come close to matching the product description or pictures (it is supposed to be four servings) and I now see that I am not alone in this assessment. I felt confident ordering based on my experience with Chata's other products, but with about $40.00 wasted (I ordered a case of 12) I sure wish I had checked the poor reviews before ordering. ## Features - TRADITIONAL MACHACA DE RES: Authentic dried and shredded beef, a Northern Mexican staple with a rich flavor and unique texture. - FROM OUR KITCHEN TO YOURS: We use high-quality ingredients and traditional cooking methods to bring you authentic Mexican food with a true homemade flavor, ready to heat and enjoy in minutes. - MADE WITH 100% BEEF: Made exclusively with shredded dried beef and prepared under the rigorous SQF (Safe Quality Food) system. - READY TO HEAT & SERVE: Fully cooked and ready to eat—just heat and serve for a quick, convenient go-to for preparing authentic Mexican meals any day of the week. - VERSATILE MEAL OPTION: Perfect as a flavorful filling for tacos, burritos, enchiladas, or tostadas.

The seeds contain a powerful natural red-orange coloring agent, used to color to a wide range of foods including cheeses and baked goods. Around Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula, annato is exploited more fully for its complex savory flavor too. It combines with citrus juice to infuse cochinita pibil, the celebrated slow-cooked pork specialty. **Q: How long will this last unopened?** A: I bought mine 12-2021 Date on can says 4 24 I assume it means 4-2024 **Q: How many tacos can you make from one pouch?** A: Hello, With an 8.8 ounce bag of meat, it is possible to make approximately 6 -7 tacos. Let us know if there is anything else we could help you with. **Q: Shelf Life?** A: Hello, thank you for your interest in our products!
