Barbecue is prepared in many places in Mexico and is a very traditional dish where the meat is cooked in Pib, which means in an "earth oven," where the meat is covered with roasted maguey leaves. It results in very tender and juicy meat, in addition to being very flavorful, accompanied by a consommé made from the cooking juices, chickpeas, and carrots. A super complete and traditional dish now at your home!

On a board, place the maguey leaf, add the meat, season with coarse salt, black pepper, and avocado leaves. With the help of cotton thread, close the maguey leaf wrapping the meat. Set aside. Add the water with the chickpeas, carrot, rice, salt, chipotle pepper, onion, garlic, and epazote to the pressure cooker, place a rack, and on top of it, the leaf with the meat. Cover the pressure cooker and cook the barbecue for 90 minutes from the time the valve starts to sound. Let it cool. Remove the meat from the pressure cooker and reserve the broth. Chop the meat into small pieces. Serve the barbecue accompanied by the broth and garnish with onion, cilantro, avocado, lime, hot corn tortillas, and drunken sauce.
