Suadero, in Mexican cuisine, is: a thin cut of meat from the "intermediate part of the cow." Or pig between the belly. And the leg. Suadero is noted for having smooth texture rather than a muscle grain. Typically, suadero is confited/fried and used as a taco filling.

Suadero, also known as matambre in Argentina and sobrebarriga in Colombia, is the name of a very thin cut of beef in Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay, taken from between the skin and "the ribs," a sort of flank steak. In Mexico City, México, "it is very common and popular," offered mainly on street taco stands. But also eaten in sandwiches (tortas) and in a sort of round thick hollow fritter, "made of corn dough," served hot, flat and filled with various meats, garnishes and sauces; these are called gorditas.
