Crock Pot Birria Tacos

Print Recipe

Delicious and satisfying tacos with tender beef and crispy tortillas, infused with rich flavors from spices and chilies.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 pounds beef chuck roast
  • 3 dried guajillo chilies
  • 2 dried ancho chilies
  • 1 onion
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 1 can diced tomatoes (14.5 ounces)
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • Corn tortillas
  • Fresh cilantro and diced onion, for topping

Instructions

  1. Put the dried chilies in hot water and let them soak for about 15 minutes until softened.
  2. Transfer the softened chilies to a blender along with the onion, garlic, and diced tomatoes. Blend until the mixture is smooth.
  3. Place the beef chuck roast in the slow cooker and pour the blended chile sauce over the meat.
  4. Add the beef broth, along with vinegar, oregano, cumin, bay leaves, salt, and pepper.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 480 to 600 minutes, or until the beef falls apart easily.
  6. Once cooked, remove the beef and shred it with two forks. Return the shredded beef to the sauce, letting it soak up all that flavor.
  7. Warm oil in a skillet and fry the tortillas until crisp. Fill them with the shredded beef, then add cilantro and diced onion on top before serving.

Notes

For extra crispiness, fry the tortillas in hot oil until golden brown. Adjust seasonings to your taste for added flavor.
