SPRING HILL RANCH'S HOUSE BARBECUE SAUCE

Steps:

• In a medium pot over medium, heat up the lard. Add the grated onions, and cook them (stirring often) until softened and turning opaque, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook/stir until fragrant, about 1 more minute. Stir in the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, yellow mustard, paprika, hot pepper sauce, salt, pepper and (if using) chile pequines.
• Stirring often, bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat, then turn the heat down to low, cover the pot and, stirring often to prevent burning, barely simmer it for 20 minutes. Taste and adjust the vinegar, salt and black pepper if needed.

SPRING HILL RANCH'S NEW MEXICO RED CHILE SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. In a heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat, heat the lard until it is shimmering but not yet smoking. Sauté the onion until it has softened and become translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and stir until it is nice and fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the flour. Stir gently but constantly until the roux reaches a medium brown ("peanut butter") color, about 2 minutes. Add the chile powder or chiles, garlic, chicken broth, oregano, salt and cumin (if using). Simmer, stirring constantly until the sauce has thickened. The sauce should coat the back of a spoon. Add a little water if needed for proper consistency. Blend or process if desired for a smoother texture.
• 2. Slather the hot (temperature-wise) sauce over or under your New Mexican or southwestern dishes. Kept in an air tight container, this should stay fresh for at least a week in the refrigerator.

Simmer the sauce, stirring occasionally, until it has reduced to about the recipe amount and thickened slightly, about 15 to 30 minutes.

SPRING HILL RANCH'S BEEF CHICANA

Steps:

• 1. Marinate the beef strips with the Southwestern Marinade in the refrigerator for 1-3 hours. (More time is fine...even overnight)
• 2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown the beef strips in batches. Combine all the beef strips, green bell pepper and onion. Pour the diced tomatoes and tomato sauce in and season with the garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper. Stir well. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes (stirring occasionally), then remove the lid and simmer an additional 15 minutes. Serve over rice or noodles, or in burritos or warmed flour tortillas. Garnish with sour cream, cheese, guacamole, salsa or pico de gallo, or whatever sounds good to you.

SPRING HILL RANCH'S SOUTHWESTERN SHREDDED BEEF

Steps:

• 1. Trim the roast of any excess fat and cut it into four relatively equal chunks. Rub the pieces with the black pepper and set them aside.
• 2. In the slow cooker, stir together the broth, green chiles, onion, chipotles, garlic powder, oregano, chili powder, ground cumin, and cayenne.
• 3. Add the pieces of beef, tucking them down into the sauce mixture. If the sauce/liquid does not come at least 1/3 of the way up the beef pieces, add enough water to do that.
• 4. Cover and cook on the high setting until the meat begins to fall apart, about 8 hours. Check every once in awhile and, if necessary, add water to keep the roast from drying out.
• 5. Turn the slow cooker down to the low setting and remove meat to a large bowl or 9x13 baking dish. Shred the meat using two forks.
• 6. Return the meat to the slow cooker and cook it about 20 minutes to reheat and deepen the seasoning before serving.
• 7. We will often freeze this in one-pound amounts so it's easy to grab a bag an make a bunch of burritos or tacos. It'll keep in the fridge for a few days or in the freezer for 6 months (not that you'll ever have it there that long!).
