Beef birria from scratch and using some home grown/dried peppers. Normally it would be made from goat or beef shanks but im outta both. Classic birria would also use guajillo and cascabel (depending on the region) but im outta both. I subbed some home grown Numex Big Jims, Pasilla and Aji Panca. Flavor is amazingly close to the birria ive had. Heat level is spot on....mildish but huge pepper flavor.
This recipe is pretty close to authentic from what i can tell. Needs a little acid but otherwise the flavor seems to be correct sofar.

Ancho....Pasilla...Big Jim and Aji Panca
Overcast day is forcing my camera to flash so color is off.
Bugs me so bad i took a minute to get it right before tossing it in the oven to slow cook for about 4 hours.
