Method

Birria Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chiles

    Remove the stems and seeds from the dried guajillo and ancho chiles. Place the chiles in a saucepan with enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes until softened. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Blend the Sauce

    In a blender, combine the softened chiles, garlic cloves, onion, cumin, oregano, bay leaves, salt, and black pepper. Add about 1 cup of beef broth and blend until smooth.

  3. 3

    Cook the Beef

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat some oil over medium-high heat. Sear the beef chuck roast on all sides until browned. Remove the beef and set aside.

  4. 4

    Simmer

    In the same pot, pour in the blended sauce and cook for a few minutes until fragrant. Add the remaining beef broth and the seared beef. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 3 hours or until the beef is tender and easily shredded.

  5. 5

    Shred the Beef

    Once cooked, remove the beef from the pot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded beef to the pot and stir.

Ramen Noodles

  1. 6

    Cook the Noodles

    In a separate pot, bring water to a boil. Add the ramen noodles and cook according to package instructions, usually around 3-4 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Assembly and Serving

  1. 7

    Assemble the Dish

    In bowls, place a portion of the cooked ramen noodles. Ladle the birria broth and shredded beef over the noodles. Top with fresh cilantro and diced onion.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Garnish with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the dish. Enjoy your Mexican-style Birria Ramen!
