Savor the flavors of authentic birria tacos, filled with tender beef and served with fresh toppings.

  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 dried guajillo chiles, stems removed
  • 2 dried ancho chiles, stems removed
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Corn tortillas
  • Chopped onions and cilantro for serving


Instructions

  1. In a slow cooker, combine the beef roast, beef broth, chopped onion, minced garlic, and dried chiles.
  2. Season with cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 480 minutes or until the meat is tender.

Notes

Toast the dried chiles in a skillet before adding them to enhance their flavor. Keep corn tortillas warm to prevent them from becoming brittle.
