Ingredients:

1 kg beef (shoulder or breast), cut into large pieces
4 Guajillo chilies, deseeded and soaked
4 ancho chilies, deseeded and soaked
3 chipotle chilies in adobo sauce
2 fresh jalapeño chilies, finely chopped
1 large onion, roughly chopped
5 cloves of garlic
2 ripe tomatoes, roughly chopped
2 teaspoons cumin
2 teaspoons oregano
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 liter of beef broth
salt and freshly ground black pepper
oil for frying
corn tortillas
Fresh coriander, for garnish
onions, finely diced, for garnish
limes, cut into quarters, for serving

Preparation:

1. Prepare chili paste:

Puree the soaked guajillo, ancho and chipotle chilies along with the fresh jalapeños, onions, tomatoes, garlic, cumin, oregano and cinnamon until smooth.

2. Fry the meat:

Heat some oil in a large, fireproof pan or a Dutch oven in the FENNEK Hexagon fire bowl . Fry the beef on all sides until it is browned all over.

3. Prepare Birria:

Add the chili paste to the seared meat in the pan. Stir well to ensure the meat is evenly coated with the paste. Pour in the beef stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer the meat for 3-4 hours until it is tender and easily flakes.

4. Assemble the tacos:

Shred the cooked meat with two forks. Heat the corn tortillas directly on the FENNEK 4Fire until lightly toasted. Fill the tortillas with the birria meat, sprinkle with onions and cilantro. Serve the tacos with a lime wedge to drizzle over.
