Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb beef chuck roast
  • 32 oz beef stock
  • 32 oz water
  • 1 sweet onion sliced
  • 5 cloves of garlic smashed
  • 2 tbsp adobo pepper seasoning
  • 4-5 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
  • 3 bay leaves
  • 28 oz can of crushed tomatoes
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • juice of a lime
  • 8 tortillas
  • 8 oz shredded cheese
  • pico de gallo

Instructions
 

  • Heat large soup pot over medium heat. Start by cutting the chuck roast into 3 pieces. Salt & pepper both sides. Place in the pot & brown both sides. Take the meat off the heat & set aside.
    To the same pot, add beef stock, water, sliced onion, smashed garlic, adobo pepper seasoning, chipotle peppers, bay leaves, can of crushed tomatoes, salt & pepper, dried oregano & the juice of a lime. Stir to combine.
    Add the meat back in & bring to a gentle boil. Cover with a lid, reduce heat & gently simmer for 1 hour.
    After 1 hour, take all the big pieces of onion, garlic, peppers & tomatoes out. Put into a blender & blend. Pour back into the stock. Put the lid back on & simmer for 3 more hours.
    After 3 hours, take the pot off the heat. Pull your meat out & shred with two forks. Place the shredded beef back into the pot. Heat a medium pan over medium-low heat. Take a tortilla, dip 3/4 of the tortilla into the beef stock mixture. Place dipped tortilla on the pan & add your cheese, shredded beef & pico de gallo to half of the tortilla. When the cheese has melted & the tortilla is slightly browned, fold the tortilla - making a taco. Let it cook until it's crispy & golden brown on both sides.
    Repeat until you have 8 tacos. Serve with beans and/or rice. Ladle some of the beef stock mixture into a small bowl for dipping. Enjoy!
