How to make birria taco recipe
- First of all, Allow your meat to reach room temperature before you begin. Allow chilis to cool down. Add 1 can of chipotle chili chiles in adobo to the water. Blend until smooth.
- Add 1/2 to 1 cup of water from the chiles. Next, add brown sugar and marjoram to the blender. Mix until mixture forms a paste/sauce consistency. Adjust the flavor according to your taste. (Cut onion into small pieces. Season chuck roast with kosher salt.
- Avocado oil can be used to heat a skillet or dutch oven. Sear for the meat until you get a nice crust. Turn heat down and remove meat. Cook the diced onion until tender. Now Mix in the tomato paste and garlic. Add 1 cup of beef stock to the bowl and mix. Return the meat to the pot, and then cover it with your sauce.
- Mix well. As needed, season with salt, pepper, and garlic. Add bay leaves and cinnamon sticks. Cover the pan and bake at 325 degrees for 3-4 hours. The time will vary according to how large and cut your meat is and what temperature you use. 350 will cook quicker – the meat should shred easily with a fork.
- After this, the meat is tender, take it out of the sauce and remove bay leaves and cinnamon sticks. Make your consomme by adding more beef stock. Now let it simmer for about ten minutes, then skim off any excess fat. Next, grate your cheese and heat your skillet.
- Heat some oil in a skillet. Place the tortilla in the sauce and cover with it. Flip the tortilla and cook for another 30-60 seconds. Fold the tortilla in half and add cheese, beef, and more cheese. Flip the tortilla once more and continue cooking for 30-60 seconds. Serve with consomme and garnish with cilantro. Enjoy this birria taco recipe.
