Don\u2019t let the size of your roast stress you out, just use what you have. Obviously, the bigger chick roast, the more meat you get. If it\u2019s a smaller roast, that\u2019s okay too! In general, most chuck roast that you find will be somewhere between 1.5-3 pounds. If you want a similar sized roast that I used, you will want one that is at least 3 pounds.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1742936593500\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What type of tortilla should I use?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">I used flour tortillas because that\u2019s what I had on hand. However, traditional Birria Tacos are made with corn tortillas. Either of them will work, just make sure you have the street taco size. If using corn tortillas, you may want to double them up as they can break easier than flour ones. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1742936782214\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Is cinnamon really needed? Why should I use it?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">So, a lot of people don\u2019t realize that cinnamon is a common ingredient used with Birria Tacos. All the seasonings used here are what\u2019s used in traditional Birria tacos, including cinnamon. I don\u2019t think you taste cinnamon as a specific ingredient, I actually think it enhances the rest of the flavors of the other ingredients. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1742937047072\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I make this in the oven instead?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Instead of cooking the beef in the slow cooker, you could do it in the oven. You can cook the chuck roast in the oven at 300\u00b0F for 3 to 4 hours. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1742937063486\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I make these tacos in the Instant Pot instead?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">sure, instead of using the Crock Pot, try using the Instant Pot to cook the chuck roast for 60-75 minutes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1742937212839\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How many tacos does this recipe make?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Remember this will depend on the size of chuck roast you chose. If you use one that is at least 3 lbs like I did, you can make 36 (street size) tacos out of this, but if you fill them very full you will get 24 tacos out of them.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1742937794631\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What pan is best for searing the beef and frying the tortillas?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">I used a cast iron skillet for searing the beef to give it that beautiful golden color. You won\u2019t get the same golden color with most other pans. I also used that pan for the tortillas. However, these can be made on a griddle instead of a cast iron pan so you can cook more at one time.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1742938075062\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How long are leftovers good for?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">You can keep the prepared tacos in the fridge for up to 3 days. They will be soft when reheating. They are hard to get crispy in the air fryer or in a skillet. Any longer and they will be soggy. You can keep the ingredients separated and in the fridge for up to 5 days. The meat freezes well for up to 3 months.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" alt=\"A serving platter with Crock Pot Birria Tacos.\" class=\"wp-image-184437 perfmatters-lazy\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/main-image-Crock-Pot-Birria-Tacos.jpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/main-image-Crock-Pot-Birria-Tacos.jpeg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/main-image-Crock-Pot-Birria-Tacos.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/main-image-Crock-Pot-Birria-Tacos-474x711.jpeg 474w, https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/main-image-Crock-Pot-Birria-Tacos-683x1025.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/main-image-Crock-Pot-Birria-Tacos-768x1152.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/main-image-Crock-Pot-Birria-Tacos-1024x1536.jpeg 1024w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/main-image-Crock-Pot-Birria-Tacos.jpeg\" alt=\"A serving platter with Crock Pot Birria Tacos.\" class=\"wp-image-184437\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/main-image-Crock-Pot-Birria-Tacos.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/main-image-Crock-Pot-Birria-Tacos-474x711.jpeg 474w, https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/main-image-Crock-Pot-Birria-Tacos-683x1025.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/main-image-Crock-Pot-Birria-Tacos-768x1152.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/main-image-Crock-Pot-Birria-Tacos-1024x1536.jpeg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/main-image-Crock-Pot-Birria-Tacos.jpeg\"\/><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE)<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>boneless chuck roast<\/strong> \u2013 these vary in sizes but basically you want to look for one that is around 2-3 pounds (it\u2019s ok if it is a little more or a little less.)<\/li>\n<li><strong>salt and pepper<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>low-sodium beef broth<\/strong> \u2013 you can always add salt but you can\u2019t take it out so I went with low sodium beef broth.
