Fantastic Shredded Beef Enchiladas Recipes

SHREDDED BEEF ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275°F (135°C).
• Sprinkle the roast with salt and pepper. In a large ovenproof pot with a tight-fitting lid, heat the bacon drippings, lard, or vegetable oil over medium heat, add the meat, and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes per side.
• Transfer the roast to a plate and keep the pot over medium-low heat. Toss the onion in the pot and cook, occasionally stirring, until the onion begins to brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds more.
• Return the roast to the pot along with the coffee, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, chipotle chiles, cumin, cinnamon, and water. (The meat won't be completely covered, but don't worry; the roast will produce plenty of liquid as it cooks.)
• Bring the pot to a boil, cover, and place it in the oven. Cook the roast, covered, for 3 to 3 1/2 hours, or until the roast practically falls apart when you prod it with a fork. (Be careful of escaping steam when removing the lid.)
• Remove the roast beef from the pot, leaving the cooking liquid in the pot to cool, and plonk it on a cutting board. Using 2 forks, shred the meat into long strands. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Pour the cooking liquid and the onions, garlic, and chipotle chiles in the pot into a blender or food processor. Add the water and the rehydrated pasilla and ancho chiles and blend until smooth, about 1 minute.
• In a medium pot, heat the oil over medium-low heat. Add the masa harina or flour, whisking constantly, until it's well incorporated and fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour the mixture from the blender into the pot, stirring until it's well combined. Stir in the cumin, oregano, and allspice, and add salt and pepper to taste. Cook over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is smooth and the flavors are balanced. Taste and adjust the seasonings if desired.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Lightly butter a large baking dish (a 9-by-13-inch baking dish works well).
• Heat a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Add the lard or oil, if desired. One at a time, heat the tortillas, flipping once, until soft and pliant. Keep the tortillas wrapped in a clean cloth until all the tortillas are heated.
• Toss the shredded beef with 2 tablespoons sauce. Place a tortilla on a plate and add about 1/4 cup shredded beef. Roll the tortilla and place in the buttered baking dish, seam side down. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and shredded beef. (You may have some shredded beef left over. It's ridiculously awesome with eggs in the morning.)
• Pour the remaining sauce over the enchiladas and top with the grated cheese and diced onion. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is lightly browned and bubbling. Dig in immediately.

Steps:

• Place the roast in your crock pot. Mix the tomatoes, green chilies and spices in a bowl. Stir until mixed and pour over roast. Let cook on low for 8-9 hours. When roast is done shred it with two forks to make shredded beef. Dip each tortilla in the sauce and roll up with 2 tablespoons shredded beef and 1 Tablespoon cheese. Place all enchiladas in two 9x13 pans. Pour remaining sauce over top of enchiladas and sprinkle remaining cheese. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven about 15 Minutes or until cheese in melted. Top with sour cream and tomatoes if desired.
• Tip: If you don't have the tomatoes just use the equivelant in tomato juice, salsa, etc. The results will still be fantastic.

• Place roast in a large saucepan with a tight-fitting lid. Cover roast with water and simmer on low for 30 minutes. Increase heat to medium/high and brown roast on all sides.

Shred the beef. Place shredded beef back into saucepan with all the juices and cool to room temperature.

• **Note: If you prefer a milder dish, omit the 4 ounce can of jalapeno peppers and replace it with another can of diced green chilies.
• I serve each enchilada on a bed of shredded lettuce sprinkled with diced tomatoes. I top each enchilada with a dollup of sour cream and serve with a side of salsa.
