Morphology
The meaning 'a liquid made by simmering beef' is directly and compositionally derived from 'beef' (meat from a cow) + 'broth' (thin liquid from boiling meat/vegetables); the noun simply specifies the source of the broth. This construction is cross-linguistically common (e.g., Spanish 'caldo de carne', French 'bouillon de bœuf'), so a B1 learner who knows both constituents would readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Beef broth comes from the simple idea of cooking beef slowly in water until the tasty parts go into the liquid, making a clear, flavored broth. That liquid is used as a 'base' to add flavor to soups and sauces, so the name means this flavored cooking liquid today.
