Carnitas Ramirez

Welcome to "Brent Meats World." On the premiere episode, Brent Young, butcher and restaurateur, takes us to Carnitas Ramirez, one of the best taco restaurants in NYC. What sets this place apart is their commitment to using every part of the pig — from the ears to the uterus — to create their flavorful carnitas. Follow along as Young meets up with the owners Giovanni Cervantes and Yvon de Tassigny to prepare the madre lard, fry the pork, and prepare their popular plates, including the pig brain sesadilla, gordita de chicharrón, and maciza tacos.
