- 3 pounds beef eye of round or bottom round roast (fat trimmed)
- 5 cloves garlic
- 1/2 medium onion
- 1/2 lime (about 2 tablespoons juice)
- 2 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce* (or more to taste)
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- salt and pepper
- 3 bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon oil
- 1 cup water
Langkah-langkah
Place garlic, onion, lime juice, cumin, oregano, chipotles, and cloves in a blender.
Trim all fat off meat and cut into 4 inch chunks. Season with salt and pepper and brown on high heat in 1 tsp oil. Add liquefied spices, water, bay leaves and simmer on low two hours in a pressure cooker. (I did this in the crock pot. Just put it all in and set it for high for 4-6 hours. You could do it on low for 8-10 hours.)You could also make this in a regular pot; you will have to double the cooking time to at least 4 hours or more, covered on low flame and add more water from time to time to make sure it doesn't dry out.
Once cooked and the meat is tender, remove the meat and place in a dish. Shred it with two forks, and discard the bay leaf. Return the shredded meat to the pot, adjust salt and cumin to taste (you may need to add more). Simmer for about 10 minutes to let the flavors penetrate.
