A wonderful flavorful, savory Mexican dish. I use it to make burritos, eat plain with tortillas, on tostadas, whatever.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs boneless beef chuck roast
8 ounces boneless pork butt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
2 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 small bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups canned tomato puree
1 cup water
Directions:
1. Cut the pork and beef into strips about 1/8 inch thick by 1/2 inch wide, trimming away excess fat.
2. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.
3. Add enough meat to cover the bottom of the pot.
4. Cook until browned, about 4 minutes.
5. Transfer to a bowl, and continue with another batch of raw meat until all is cooked.
6. Return all of the meat to the pot and add all the remaining ingredients.
7. Bring to a boil and cook over medium heat for 1 1/2 hours (or bake covered in a 400°F oven for 1/2 hours).
8. Serve rolled in warmed tortillas, with sour cream and salsa.
