Method
Prepare the Birria
- In a Dutch oven, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Brown the chuck roast and short ribs on all sides.
- Remove the meat and set aside. In the same pot, add chopped onion and garlic, sauté until softened.
- In a blender, combine the guajillo and ancho chiles with beef broth, cumin, oregano, thyme, black pepper, and salt. Blend until smooth.
- Return the meat to the pot, pour the blended sauce over it, and bring to a simmer.
- Cover and cook on low heat for about 3-4 hours, until the meat is tender and easily shredded.
Assemble the Tacos
- Once the meat is cooked, shred it using two forks and mix it with the broth.
- In a skillet, heat the corn tortillas until warm. Fill each tortilla with shredded birria meat.
- Top with chopped cilantro and onion. Serve with lime wedges and the reserved broth for dipping.

Notes
