Tacos de guisados are tortillas filled with a variety of stewed meats and vegetables. The team behind the wheel of the popular food truck Tacos Aaron has been preparing tacos de guisados – or tacos varios as they are known in Tijuana – for over 20 years. I’m usually not a fan of chicharrón served wet — that is, fried then reconstituted by stewing. I love the crunchy stuff, but wet, it always seems sad, limpid and somehow wrong. The difference in Taco Aaron’s taco de chicharrón is the amount of meaty, succulent pork that still adheres to and is served with the skin. The morsels of chicharrón are covered in a thick, piquant, tomatillo-based salsa verde and served with pickled red onions.
