2-3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (I used the whole can)
3 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 cups beef stock
3 lbs stew beef
Garnishes: chopped onion and cilantro
Instructions
Combine all ingredients except oil, beef stock, and stew beef into a blender, and blend until smooth.
Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef a few at a time to brown. Cook for a few minutes on both sides until brown.
When beef is finished browning and removed from pan, add the beef stock to hot pan. Scrape all the yummy brown bits from the bottom of the pan and mix with the beef stock.
Add the beef stock, browned beef, and blended sauce to a crock pot. Put it on low for about 8 hrs or until tender and shreds easily with a fork. (you can speed up the time by cooking it on high instead).
When tender, shred with fork. Serve hot.
