Tacos de Castacán Con Queso (Yucatecan Pork Belly and Cheese Tacos)
Castacán is the Yucatecan version of crispy pork belly. These tacos are crisped up on a griddle, then topped with shredded cheese. As the cheese melts, it oozes into the spaces between the meat, binding the bits of pork belly together. The whole thing sizzles until the cheese is browned and crisped.

Mexican-Style Burritos With Machaca Guisada (Braised Dried-Beef)
Mexican burritos are a bit different from their counterparts north of the border. Most importantly, they're smaller and stuffed with a much simpler array of fillings (often just one, like the braised beef here). Since there are so few elements, the key to success is quality: good homemade tortillas and a delicious filling.
