  1. Put the beef cheek, beef lips, garlic, peppers, onion, bay leaves, salt, oregano, pepper, coriander, cloves and the 1/2 cup water into a large pot, add water to cover the meat fully (about 2.5 liters / 10 cups), and bring to a boil.
  2. Lower the heat and simmer covered for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, checking after 1 1/2 hours and stirring.
  3. Cook until the meat is fall-apart soft, then shred or chop it and serve in corn tortillas with salsa verde, chopped white onion, cilantro and lime.
