Trim the beef cheeks to remove excess fat and silver skin.

Season the beef cheeks with a healthy coat of meat church fajita rub and meat church holy cow rub on both sides.

Preheat the Weber Smokey Mountain to between 250-275°F.

Place the seasoned beef cheeks on the smoker and cook for about 2 hours until they develop a nice color and bark.

Transfer the beef cheeks to a braising pan with a bed of onions and add enough beef broth to cover the bottom of the pan.

Cover the pan with foil and cook for an additional 4-6 hours until the beef cheeks are pull-apart tender.

Remove the beef cheeks from the pan and shred the meat, discarding any pieces of fat.

Warm the corn tortillas on the grill or skillet.

Assemble the tacos by placing shredded beef on the tortillas, adding onions, and topping with valentina hot sauce.
