What Is Taco de Buche?
“Buche” is the Spanish term for pork stomach, a cut known for its tender texture and distinct flavor when prepared correctly. In Mexican cuisine, tacos de buche are considered a taquería classic, offering something different from the more common carnitas or carne asada. Their chewy yet tender bite and bold seasoning make them stand out as a taco full of character and tradition.
