Easy CROCKPOT BIRRIA Makes the Best BIRRIA TACOS Recipe!
Mexican birria de res from the heart of Jalisco is a hearty slow-cooked stew with the utmost flavor and juicy, fall-apart tender beef. You can serve it in a bowl with fresh toppings like onion, cilantro, and lime juice, or go the extra step to make cheesy birria tacos (quesabirria).
There's no one exact way to make birria, and you'll find many versions online. It was originally made with goat meat (birria de chivo), but now, different regions of Mexico have put their own spin on this classic dish with beef as the preferred meat. This slow cooker or Crockpot birria recipe I’m sharing today stems from all the delicious experiences I’ve had with it - from local taco stands in Mexico to authentic, home-cooked versions. And I can't wait for you to try it!

SPLIT PEA SOUP | the classic recipe you know and love!
I make a very similar salad to the last one only I add red wine vinegar and couscous. It is my absolute favorite summer staple in my fridge especially when the garden is producing🤤
Oh my goodness! I've never been a big fan of chickpeas, but I love Mediterranean dishes so I thought I'd give it a shot just to see how it goes... I am in love! I did only use one can of chick peas though and I had maybe 4 kalamata olives that I chopped up and put in there. Oh, and I also put a little bit of Italian seasoning in the dressing. I think the dressing is my favorite part! This is so good and I'm definitely telling everyone that I think will like it! Thank you.
I'm making it this Saturday. Thank you so much for this easy recipe. Greetings from sunny Poland.
Looks delicious!! Have to try some🤤🤤
Just like The Anderson Pea Soup Restaurant's Pea Soup we would had at the Restaurant in Mammoth Lakes, CA! Super delicious! Brought back wonderful memories. I am making this soup again tonight. I got a fresh Ham Bone from the butcher shop. Thank you!
I EAT EVERYTHING ALLLL DAYYYY😅😋😄🤗💝👑💯🌟💫❤️🔥
🤔 what am I? 😎😁🤩
Only sisterly love coming your way! Thank you for the positive path! Was in pain with anaphylaxis until you showed me the way! Just know you are making a difference! Thank you! 🌺
Looks great…thanks
I made this recipe and it was delicious. I made verde sauce from scratch. The first night we had it with refried beans and tortillas. the second night over jasmine rice topped with chopped white onion and cilantro. I still have enough for 2 more meals for 2 people. YUM!
Can't wait to make these - Thank you for giving several options for cooking.
So, does adding the white of the egg make the mayo more... white?
Delicious and easy thank you beautiful
New discovery 😍 tried it last week and fell in love with it, so I came back for another yummy shish kabobs. Bless you love ❤
Most of the time when you put eggs in the hot water they crack and break as you put them in. I put my eggs in cold water and bring to the boil, timing starts as soon as the water boils 7 minutes for the perfect egg 8 if it’s extra large in size.
It’s really delicious I think potato is the most popular food in the world. What do you think? What’s the most popular food in the world
Do you not throw the foam away. You’re just being wasteful. I use that foam in making my dog food, it’s good for you to eat I fry my eggs occasionally. What is an edible byproduct. You’re supposed to be being self-sufficient and if you’re throwing food away you’re not very self-sufficient are you?
Nice job! Can I ask, what is the cost for that particular knife you’re using? I see that most people have that kind of knife.
From what I’ve read, the enzyme does not work at cold temperatures. It needs to be 32-37 °C before it can turn the starch into sugar. So, perhaps the brief soaking and rinsing is what made it less slimy, and not the enzyme 🤷♂️ I’m wondering if doing the counterintuitive thing of blending the oats and enzyme at high speed for a few minutes (in a blender that can heat up liquids) would work? Just guessing. I’ll try it one day and see. Could be a disaster 🤷♂️
Your presentation is always impeccable. The mind will not be satisfied without seeing the khal.
great recipe, dirty oven 😁 cooking this today
