I think it's deep-fried pig stomach (but may sometimes be applied
to other deep fried variety meats just to confuse us). Note that
tripe is usually beef stomach.

You may have better luck asking in alt.food.mexican-cooking (like
so).

Default What is buche?

Hi,

I wanted to explain it myself, but I think this article explains it better
:-)

http://thematrix.sureste.com/cityvie...los/eltaco.htm

Sorry I got it in Spanish, but I think there's an English translation.

Carnitas are prepared not only with the "macisa", but with the insides of
the pork, in this article you will see the name of the different parts of
the pork that are cook in the same cauldron.

Hope this help.

Irma.
p.s. I can't find the English translation....

Any way here are the names:

De carnitas de cerdo: Provienen de Michoacán y Jalisco, y generalmente son
de: maciza, cuerito, buche, nana, nenepil, trompa, oreja, cachete, hígado,
tripa, "libro", pulmón y cáscara.
