Method
Prepare the Birria
- In a Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown the beef chunks on all sides.
- Add chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until softened.
- In a blender, combine beef broth, guajillo chiles, ancho chiles, cumin, oregano, black pepper, salt, and bay leaves. Blend until smooth.
- Pour the blended sauce over the beef in the Dutch oven. Bring to a simmer, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook for 2-3 hours until the beef is tender.
Assemble the Tacos
- Once the beef is tender, shred it with two forks and return it to the pot.
- Heat corn tortillas in a skillet until warm.
- Fill each tortilla with shredded beef, then top with cilantro and diced onion.
- Serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the tacos.
