BBQ Birria Tacos with Dipping Broth
Juicy, rich, fall-apart beef with molten cheese, onion, and coriander, housed in an authentic corn tortilla. It is everything a great taco should be, made better by the smoky notes picked up on the BBQ grill.
While it takes time to get there, the actual effort required is minimal. Our Taco Recipe Kit brings this BBQ Beef Birria recipe to life with all the authentic ingredients, skipping the heavy lifting upfront.
Just think of the cheese pull, the glorious dip into that silky birria broth, and the reactions around the table. It is an impressive barbecue dish, but no one needs to know how easy it was to pull off.

Ingredients
- 1 kg Beef (brisket, chuck or short ribs)
- 2 x Birria Taco Recipe Kit
- 1 pack of Corn Tortillas or Soft Taco Wraps
- 250g Grated mozzarella
- White onion
- Fresh coriander
- Lime
How to make it
-
Sear the meat: Brown the beef in a baking tray directly on the hot BBQ.
-
Go low and slow: Remove the tray from the heat, add the contents of the birria taco recipe kit, and cover tightly with foil, or transfer everything to a heavy, cast-iron casserole dish. Cook low and slow on the BBQ until the meat is completely tender.
-
Shred and prep the broth: Shred the beef directly in the cooking liquid, then pour off and reserve the excess to use as your dipping broth.
-
Build the tacos: Dip the corn tortillas into the reserved broth, place them onto the BBQ, and fill with the shredded beef and grated mozzarella.
-
Crisp and melt: Toast the tacos on the BBQ until the tortillas are golden and the cheese is completely molten.
-
Serve: Finish with finely diced onion, fresh coriander, and a squeeze of lime. Serve immediately with a bowl of the warm broth on the side for dipping.
