Take the beef out from outside where it was thawing in the heat.

Prepare the beef by cutting it into small cubes for quicker cooking.

Gather all the ingredients including tomato, chile guajillo, chile pasilla, bay leaves, avocado leaves, garlic, cloves, oregano, black pepper, and onion.

Add a splash of apple cider vinegar to the mixture.

Combine all the ingredients in the pot, reserving the bay leaves and avocado leaves for later.

Cook the beef mixture without adding water, just the ingredients mentioned.

Add the bay leaves and onion once the beef is in the pot.

Cover the pot and set the timer for 50 minutes to cook.

While the beef is cooking, prepare the accompaniments by sautéing onions with lime juice and adding shredded cabbage with a bit of apple cider vinegar.

Chop cilantro and mix it into the cabbage.

Heat oil in a skillet to sauté the onions for the topping.

Once the beef is cooked, check that it is tender and easily shreddable.

Serve the beef with the prepared cabbage and onions on corn tortillas.

Add salsa and lime juice before serving.
