COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
Stovetop
Take your frozen food out of the freezer and put it in the refrigerator to thaw. For a faster alternative, we recommend the Hot Water-Bath (Baño Maria) method: Use boiling tap water and immerse the plastic-wrapped meat in a large pot for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stirring is important because it prevents a cold zone from developing around the food, insulating it from the remaining warm water.
Heat it in a saucepan for about 7-10 minutes.

Place the Barbacoa on a foil tray and heat it up on the Grill at medium-low for about 10-12 minutes.
Enjoy!
