My weird obsessions include: small towns, anything that predates my life, some other stuff that's…read morenot relevant, and beef jerky. Two of my obsessions are fulfilled at Borracho Jerky. I've had Borracho Jerky before (on my otherwise regrettable trips to Big 8) and it has always had a sweet spot with me. This is the kind of jerky that you splash with Valentina's or throw in a red beer. You know, the super thin, crisp kind. After a half day spent at antique shops, buying comic books, vintage records and random knick-knacks I was making the drive back to my casa and on the way up Talbot St. I saw a sign with dazed cows on it. Could it be? Could it be the very place that makes the only item I'm willing to purchase from a Big 8. It was in fact! I pulled in to a beaten path that led to what looked like a tiny house surrounded by a chain link fence. There were two people outside loading up a car and so I asked, "Can I buy beef jerky here?" After some smiles, a nod and a "yes", I found myself inside Borracho. Turns out they weren't actually opened, but the owners were nice enough to open up for me anyways. I was already very familiar with this brand, what I wasn't familiar with was the huge variety of different flavored jerky they carry. In Big 8 all I ever saw was Jalepeno, Tequila Lime, and original. Inside the actual Borracho store they have every flavor of jerky you want and they have these huge packs that will last you weeks (or days if you're an avid jerky eater like me). The regular sized packs you find at Big 8 are usually around $7 and only have 4-5 pieces, the huge ones at Borracho are $12 and have 10+ pieces. I ended up getting the Mesquite and Jalapeno, both quite good (the Jalapeno has always been a fave of mine). Growing up, I guess I was never taught the importance of sharing because I hate sharing my food (unless it's awful, then you can take as much as you like). I had so much jerky I didn't even think twice about sharing with Bambi and threw her, her very own big piece of jerky. Borracho Jerky makes me a better person and for that alone I will always be a loyal customer.

I've been passing by this food truck for almost two weeks, so I finally decided to give it a try…read moretoday. I'm willing to give this establishment 3.5 stars. For almost $10, I think you can give a little more food IMHO like rice and beans. I think you can get four tacos for around $5.00 in town. For convenience of location and saving some of my lunch time for not having to travel further to other taco shops, I'm willing to pay some more. Now, in their defense, all tacos plates come with five...though they are somewhat on a small side...about 3 1/4 in. in diameter. I opted for al pastor, and I was not disappointed. Flavor was very good, and fresh condiments added refreshing taste to it to cut down on some greasiness. Guacamole sauce was a bit runny, but it did add some freshness. You'd better be careful with salsa...it's very hot (at least to me). Customer service is very good. A very pleasant lady takes orders and process payments. Orders came out fairly fast...about 5 minutes. I can handle that even during extreme heat waiting under the sun these days.

This place is great. The steak tacos are to die for. The only thing I would say is that it is quite…read moreexpensive. A little pricey for their 6 tacos lunch menu item. It ended up costing and being over $2 a taco. My advice is that if you are really hungry, I highly suggest getting the torta, which is also really good and filled with tons and tons of meat and comes with their homemade salsas -- the red salsa is firey spicy!!! The green salsa is a lot more milder. This is definitely a great go to spot in the area

Let me just say: this is the kind of Mexican food experience I was hoping to find. Flavorful, authentic, and absolutely worth talking about.

A cashier was talking with a another man, the only 2 people in store, no acknowledgement, no greeting as I walked in, completely ignored by worker. I had to walk navigate around the clutter, finally found quail eggs the fridge it was in was barely cool, date was blank. Took a chance, and took it to the register, the cashier was sitting and texting, ignoring me...I turned to leave, when he finally stood up and rang up the eggs. In middle of transaction, he calls someone to start chatting. He just stood at register, and I stood there, waiting for my change and receipt, took him like 15 seconds, he finally reaches into register to give me my change. Did not tell me "thank you" , he didn't say anything to me, at all. It smells of bad fish and looks depressing, I love my doggy and will do anything for her, but I will NEVER go into this depressing place, again!

Let me tell you about these combos...and Mr. Combi. 7/17/21 After eating at higher end restaurants I realized I'm a simple-pleasures kinda girl. I like to talk to people as they're cooking and just the experience of getting to know people waiting in line for food. Food truck gatherings are my favorite places to get food from and El Paso has some of the best I've found anywhere in the world. The vendors take the best of the food truck scene here and add their own El Paso/Borderland friendliness reminiscent of outdoor markets I've gone to in China, Mexico, Vietnam, Taiwan, Peru, Thailand etc. The culture here is of generosity, they're proud of their food and they want to stuff your face with it. I found such a market here on the Westside tonight off Paseo Del Norte in the Brake Master lot. There was a flautas truck, Mr. Combi, who converted a VW Bus and drove it from Mexico City. His flautas (beef or potatoes) is super fresh, light, and crispy. The sauces are really good and clearly homemade. I got the beef and potatoes combo ($8) which comes with a soda. He also has one in a cup which he called a riff on Chico's tacos, the Chuco ($4), it had an amazing tomato based sauce that was out of this world. Definitely recommend this place and it was busy with people in line from Hawaii waiting to get their fix of El Paso food. Next to him was an elotes truck. I think they're called Elotes El Rey? And the sons were continuing the traditional corn on the cob and in a cup (esquites) that they learned from their dad. I didn't get to try but will do next time since a customer showed me his and it looked so good. Then there's the bacon hot dog stand, they have the hot dogs where you basically take a dog and add the whole enchilada, or kitchen sink. The owners are from Sonora and are as sweet as can be. It's crazy how much they actually fit inside the thing. You can customize it to how you like it. Definitely different from a Dodger dog, but delicious. It's $8 with a soda and chips for all that food. I can tell these trucks are a neighborhood favorite as families come over after shopping at Walmart and there's a ton of fast food around, but they represent their homemade local food well, so people find them and flock to them. They're also open super late and only gathers on Saturdays from 5pm-midnight. So for the ones looking for awesome food late at night on the Westside, this is the spot you. Come out and #supportlocal and oh I forgot they all do catering as well so you can hire them I guess for events. 7810 Paseo del Norte 7/24/21 Had to come back for their "Chuco style" flautas. They're addicting as heck! Here til 11pm tonight only.
