Have been wanting to cook Birria de Res for quite some time & yesterday was the date.

I searched the web for a recipe & found one here: https://tonyandmaribel.com/2017/01/09/birria-de-res-our-way/
Hmmmm..... might have known.

Was planning on doing this outside, at least smoke the chuckie for a while. However, it rained all day - about 4 1/2" total.
So it was done inside. Don't have an "Indoor Weber" like Rich & Barb's, so a big skillet & the range had to suffice.

Good deal on chuckie got me going:

Rounded up the rest of the team.

Put the meat, onion, garlic head, cumin (2 tbs), bay leaves, salt (1 tbs) & beef broth in the skillet. Added water to cover & let it simmer until the meat was fork tender.

Removed the garlic, onion, bay leaves & shredded the meat.

Put the meat back in the pot, added the guajillio sauce, brought things to a boil, & reduced to a simmer for 15 minutes.

Served with chopped green onions, radish slices & cilantro.

Time to Eat!

Makes a great breakfast! Next time.... might make the sauce from scratch using a couple three different chilies.

Oh yeah.... here's what 4 1/2" of rain in 18 hours & some wind will do:

Ouch! If you get one, make sure it's a Stihl :)

Your Birria de Res looks fantastic!

You might want to check on your ball park, it's looking more like a fish tank. The G-men don't want to play baseball in a fish tank :cool:
 
That looks fantastic Robert. Can't go wrong with a Tony and Maribel cook either. Been there, done that with the fallen tree thing.
 
Going to make that for sure Robert, bet that is really tasty. Tony and Maribel sure do have some cooking talent. Been raining here for the past three days, almost 24 hours a day. Maybe I'll do it in the indoor Weber just to be safe;)
