Instructions

The Birria Beef

Step 1

Step 2

2. Mix all the broth ingredients together.

Step 3

3. Season the beef on all sides and sear for 3 minutes per side on all sides to get some browning.

Step 4

4. Gently toast the Chillies for 4 minutes to release the flavour.

Step 5

5. Add the broth, veg and Chillies in with the beef. Simmer for 2-4 hours until the beef starts to fall apart.
