Today, we are doing some of the best burrita in Los Angeles.

Now, what is your experience with burrita?

I've never had it before.  I've seen clips online.

I know the internet loves it, which I assume is why we're here.

We're starting the day off at Burrita El Jaleciense.

These guys won the best burrita at the LA Taco Burritamania last year.

I'm picturing WrestleMania, but with like food instead of fists.

You know, I wasn't there, but I would assume so, yes.

If they've got a belt, it's good enough for us.

The meat we're going to be having today is goat.

Every Thursday, he gets three goats from Chino that suit his needs, and that's all the meat they're doing today.

I know that one of these places where they go till it's gone, and when it's gone, it's gone.

I don't know how common burrita is as a breakfast food, as a 9 a.m. meal, but, I mean, people are here and they are eating, so, yeah.

So, is goat kind of the traditional meat that's used in burrita?

Because when I've seen it online, I think it's tended to be more beef.

I guess maybe beef is just easier to come by than goat might be in like a supermarket.

The dish apparently was accidentally invented when a volcano erupted in Mexico and a goat herder had to abandon his flock in a cave to get out of there, and when he came back days later, all the goats had been steamed to perfection and burrita was born.

Now, I don't know if that's true, but it's an incredible story, so let's assume that it is.

Okay, God bless volcanic eruptions for bringing such a delicious food to my house.

Just edit it so I get up and leave in the middle of what he's saying.

So, the way they're presenting it here, we got the plate of the meat and the consomme.

Just kind of like, I mean, we have a spoon, but I think the grab, the dip and grab is probably the move, you know?

And of course, I'm just gonna pour some on here because why not?

What I love about this is the meat is just dripping with incredible flavor.

I'm trying to slurp to not waste all the juices.

And all the salsa just immediately hit the back of my throat.

Let's just take a sip right from the source, man.

It's like the best tomato soup you've ever had.

It's a flavor that I'm picking up out of here.

Obviously, you got garlic, you got cumin, but there's a little bit of clove in there.

I used to smoke them, now I'm eating them.

Can I just like, look at this, just falling off the bone, man.

It is his family recipe, and it's a two-part process of first steaming the meat.

It becomes nice and tender, and then he grills it to get really, these really crispy edges on the outside.
