Cabeza (Beef cheek) Tacos

Ingredients:
4 lbs Beef Cheeks
Kosher Salt
2 Tbsp garlic powder
2 tbsp onion powder
1 tbsp black pepper
2 beef bouillon cubes
6 cups water or until it covers the meat
3 bayleaves
1 whole onion cut into 1/8ths (optional)

Ali Verde
1 cup mayo
1/3 cup parmesan cheese
juice of a whole lime
salt to taste
2 jalapeños
3 garlic cloves
2 bunches of cilantro with stems removed

Instructions:
1. Salt the beef cheeks and grill on high heat until it gets a really nice char. The goal is here to infuse it with smoke flavor, NOT to cook it all the way. That would take hours and nobody got time for that.
2. Cut in smaller cubes and place in a pressure cooker. Throw in garlic powder, onion powder, bouillon cubes, bayleaves, onions, salt, black pepper and the water. Pressure cook on high pressure for 20 minutes. DO NOT cook for more than that. Unless you like beef goop.
3. Make the aji verde sauce. You can roast the jalapeños before but that’s completely optional. Place everything listed above and blend on high for 20 seconds or until it is smooooooth.
4. Chop onions and cilantro for garnish.
5. Assemble your tacos however you like and enjoy!
