More Than Just Tacos
It also works well anywhere you want tender shredded meat and a rich, flavorful broth, especially for meals that can stretch into leftovers.
How to Use It
Simmer with water and meat to build the braise and broth. Cook low and slow until the meat is tender and easy to shred. For deeper flavor, brown the meat first before adding the liquid.
What kind of meat should I use for birria?
Chuck roast works especially well, but any meat that benefits from slow cooking will work great. Popular options include:
• Beef chuck roast
• Beef short ribs
• Lamb shoulder
• Goat
• Pork shoulder
• Chicken thighs
The key is choosing cuts that become tender when slow cooked.
Flavor & Why It Works
The chile blend brings savory depth, gentle warmth, and the layered flavor birria is known for. It is built to give the broth richness and body without making the process harder than it needs to be.
Quick Ideas
- make birria tacos with a side of consommé
- use the shredded meat in quesadillas or burrito bowls
- serve over rice for an easy dinner
- freeze extra meat and broth for another meal

- use broth instead of water for even more depth of flavor
