Mexican Shredded Beef (and Tacos)

I used a rump roast which renders a drier, less juicy meat, but the flavour is spot on. Mild amount of spice. Maybe next time if I'm to treat myself, I'll use a fattier cut of meat to make it juicier.

was very good, lots of sauce, would be good to have more meat. However i think there are better ones and you could taste the tomato out of it, which i don't like so much

VERY GOOD!! Modifications I made Leave out the 1 1/2 tbsp chipotle powder and instead add 4 jarred chipotles in adobo sauce when you add the crushed tomatoes I used 2.5 lb beef chuck next time use 3.5-4lb the recipe makes so much sauce ! I probably could have thicken the sauce more by taking the beef out at the end and boiling the sauce and then letting it condense more. This took a while I did it in a Dutch oven but I’d like to try it in a slow cooker the end result was amazing but it was time consuming. Def be sure to brown the meat and make sure you don’t have any burnt pieces in the pot just browned pieces.

The recipe does need a little spice and extra salt. Added some Serrano and it slaps

It’s not bad, but it’s also not the best taco beef I’ve made. There’s a lot of broth, which is great if you’re making bowls rather than actual tacos, and it definitely needed a little extra salt added to it at the end. Family said they liked it though, and it was gobbled down.

Was good but not spicy enough and I'm a mild spice foodie. So I added a jalapeño. Lots of leftover sauce.

Tender & very flavorful

Very tasty! I ran out of smoked paprika, so I subbed with Chipotle powder. I seared in my dutch oven then baked at 325⁰ for 2.5 hrs. It absorbed most of the liquid, so next time, I will increase the broth to 3 cups.

Definitely reduce the sauce down, slow cooked it for 8 hours on medium heat, took the sauce out and reduce and kept the meat on high heat for 3 hours. 100% will make again

Reduce liquid and put in the slow cooker

This is so flavorful! We cooked the meat and froze it to have something quick and easy on hand for a family vacation. It made delicious nachos and tacos. This will be a staple in our house and freezer!

My extremely picky husband actually requested we have this one in rotation. I blend the onion in (so he doesn't know its there) and toss in the powercooker.

Moved from my home of 59 years in Southern California to Virginia where most Mexican Restaurant food has absolutely no flavor... This recipe packs a punch of flavor, nice heat and a taste of home! Yummy!
