Ingredients

4 lbs chuck roast

4 medium tomatoes, quartered

2 jalapeños, diced

6 cloves garlic, minced

2 ½ cups beef stock

Salt/Pepper to taste

1 ½ tbsp chili powder

1 tbsp Oregano

1 tsp Coriander

1 tsp Cumin

½ tsp salt

½ tsp black pepper

½ tsp cinnamon

1 cup diced fresh mozzarella

Chopped cilantro

Sliced avocados

Sour cream

Fresh salsa (I made a fresh peach salsa—highly recommend!)

Directions

Step 1

Lightly coat your beef with olive oil, then rub with a generous amount of salt and pepper.

Step 2

In a large pan or Dutch oven, sear your beef on sides. Remove from pan and set aside. Preheat oven to 325°

Step 3

In the same pot add in your tomatoes, peppers, and garlic. Cook for a few minutes. Add in all spices and stir together. Add in beef stock and stir together again. Next, add beef back in to the pot. Cover with a lid and place into oven for about 2.5 hours. You’ll know it’s done when you can easily shred it with a fork.

Step 4

Remove pot from oven. Remove meat from pan and let rest. Pour remaining contents of pan into a blender and blend until smooth.

Step 5

Shred your beef and then pour about 1.5 cups of juice. Mix together, then assemble your tacos.

Step 6

Lay down beef, fresh tomatoes, avocado slices, cheese, salsa, sour cream, cilantro, etc…enjoy!
