This crazy-tender barbacoa made with oxtails and a blend of fruity chilies puts the fast food version to shame.

Note: Look for dried chilies in a large supermarket or Latin market. If you can't find these exact chilies, any combination of mild, fruity and bright-tasting chilies will do, such as guajillo or Colorado. Barbacoa can be stored in its liquid for up to five days in refrigerator. The flavor should improve with time. Reheat gently on the stovetop or the microwave. Serve with store-bought or homemade corn tortillas (recipe here), and make sure to reheat them right!
