Still haven't found a Dallas style brisket taco, but here's a list of the hunt so far. Remember: the Holy Grail is braised brisket with cooked onions on a soft flour tortilla.

Brooklyn Taco Co.: Chilorio Brisket is now official. Time Out New York says it is one of the best tacos in NYC. http://newyork.timeout.com/restaurants-bars/1295011/nycs-26-best-tacos

Gradie Oakes: Another place that makes the guac by your table instead of letting it hang out and get tasty. Tacos suadero = brisket tacos, but scrap the blue corn tortillas.

Gradie Oakes: Un poquito pricey for the typical taqueria but pretty awesome. Kind of NorCal style...they had a brisket taco at NYF&WF, so hope that's available as a special. If not, carne asada.

Gradie Oakes: No they don't have brisket tacos but they do have the best Tex-Mex style queso and there's also an entirely serviceable chicken friend steak. Want to say it's cash only but there's an ATM upstairs.
