Cooking Instructions
- 1
Roast the tomatoes, onion, and garlic in a skillet.
- 2
Soak the chiles in hot water until softened.
- 3
Blend everything together with salt, oregano, pepper, clove, and cumin to taste.
- 4
Return the sauce to the skillet and simmer to reduce and concentrate the flavors.
- 5
Meanwhile, cut the beef into medium pieces and sear in batches over high heat in the same pot you’ll use for cooking. Set aside each batch as you go.
- 6
Add the beef and bones to a pressure cooker, pour the sauce over, add a tablespoon of vinegar and about 4 cups (1 liter) of water, making sure not to exceed the maximum fill line.
- 7
Stir well, then cook under pressure for 50 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally for another 30 minutes.
- 8
Once done, remove the meat and shred it with two forks—it should fall apart easily.
- 9
To enjoy these tacos at their best, dip the tortillas in the beef broth and grill them.
- 10
Fill each taco generously with cheese and shredded beef.
- 11
Save the broth to dip the tacos and serve as consomé. You can freeze the meat and broth together or separately.
- 12
Serve hot with consomé, chopped onion, cilantro, and salsas.
- 13
Enjoy!

Cookpad member Pinkblanket’s Kitchen listed her Birria Taco recipe in here, I made it from ingredients on hand, and I made it very spicy.Quesabirria is a birria taco with cheese and consommé dip.I love new ways to cook tough meats, because we raise and butcher our own beef, pork, lamb, goat and fowl, and eat game meat like elk and venison. We eat all the tough meat cuts ourselves.These tacos and the consommé dip taste delicious. Thank you, cookpad member Pinkblanket’s Kitchen.#CA2025 Hobby Horseman -
