From baked oats to butter boards, TikTok’s given us some tasty food trends – and birria tacos are the latest sensation. Featuring tender beef from the slow cooker, oven or even the barbecue, these tacos are finished with a quick fry on the cooktop. With a soft, saucy interior and crunchy shell, birria tacos bring authentic Mexican flavour to family mealtimes – just the thing to spice up Taco Tuesdays!
With more than 1.2 billion views and counting, #birriatacos TikTok videos are getting all the attention! Find out what the hype is about with our best-ever birria TikTok taco recipe, and how the latest kitchen appliances can help you achieve mouth-watering results (with minimal effort).
Birria is a meat dish that originated in the Mexican state of Jalisco – and this easy TikTok recipe packs it into a (glorious!) taco form.
In what would otherwise be a stuff-and-serve taco situation, birria taco tortillas are dipped in cooking juices (reserved from slow-cooking the birria beef) before they are fried. Leftover cooking juices are then served alongside the tacos as a dip. They’re best beefed up with slow-cooked chuck steak and loaded with cheese and onion.
A few easy steps is all it takes! First, perfect the pull-apart beef filling, then lightly dip your tortilla in the freshly made stew juices before frying and assembling in the frypan to create that crispy finish.
The best beef birria tacos start with the right cooking appliances. And even your barbecue can get in on the act! Not just for searing the perfect steak, your outdoor grill can slow-cook too, and will add a smoky flavour to your birria beef. First, grill your beef for approximately two minutes on each side. Then, add to a dutch oven with your marinating ingredients and simmer for four hours at a low heat on the barbecue’s hot plate.
Alternatively, you can use your oven or switch on your slow cooker for a weekday dinner that’s cooked to perfection.
“A slow cooker’s power and heat comes from its base, creating an all-round, low, consistent heat that’s best at tenderising tough meat and bringing out flavours,” says Tracey Ellis, The Good Guys Buyer – Portable Appliances.
Looking for a new slow cooker recipe? Birria tacos are it! In the morning, sear your beef in a pan on the cooktop (4-5 mins), then transfer to your slow cooker with all the seasonings. After 7-8 hours on your slow cooker’s low setting, it’ll be juicy, tender and ready to load into your taco shells.

Just before serving, birria taco tortillas are fried in a shallow pan on a cooktop. It’s this essential final step that delivers that all-important crisp shell. Lie each tortilla flat (with the dipped side down), load up the fillings, then fold and fry until you get a crunchy exterior.
