Recipe Introduction
Shredded beef that has been slow cooked and used in
tacos, enchiladas or just eaten with a vegetable. This is especially good as a change from bacon or sausage for
breakfast or brunch, and is also good served rolled in warmed flour tortillas for lunch or dinner.
List of Ingredients
- 1 large Texas yellow onion, chopped into 1/2" pieces
- 1/2 cup Ro*tel diced tomatoes & green chilies, juice drained
- 1 teaspoon crushed red chile flakes
- 1 tablespoon Tabasco sauce
- 1/2 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 cup canned diced tomatoes with juice
- 2 lbs. Top round, cut into 4 or 5 large pieces
Instructions
- In a large, heavy pan with a lid, over medium heat, sauté onions, Ro*tel, red Chile flakes, Tabasco, black pepper and cumin, adding a little water only as needed to keep the mixture from sticking. Stir
frequently, cooking until the onion is translucent and tender.
- Add tomatoes with their liquid and stir well. Cook for 3-5 minutes. There won't be much liquid at this point.
- Add beef. Reduce heat to simmer, cover pot and cook, stirring occasionally, for 1-1/2 hours or until beef is thoroughly tender. When beef has cooled, refrigerate overnight.
- The next day, shred beef pieces, using fingers. Skim and fat from cooking juices and return beef to pan. Reheat over low heat and serve.
