## 🌽 What Are Birria Elote Cups?

This isn’t just corn on the cob — it’s a layered party-in-a-cup.

Traditionally, Mexican **elote** is grilled corn smothered in mayo, cheese, chili powder, and lime. But when you add tender **birria beef** and stir in some mac and cheese magic, you get a **street food–meets–comfort food explosion** that’ll stop the party cold (in the best way possible).

And thanks to the **Large Birria Bomb**, you don’t have to slow-roast chiles, toast spices, or babysit your broth all day.
