Spring Hill Ranchs Southwestern Beef Marinade 1 Recipes

SPRING HILL RANCH'S SLOPPY JOE AND SLOPPY JOSé

Steps:

• 1. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the canola oil. Add the onion, and green pepper. Cook until slightly softened. Add the ground beef. Cook until the beef is browned, and drain off the excess grease.
• 2. Meanwhile, in a medium mixing bowl, stir together ketchup, vinegar, mustard, brown sugar, ground cloves, and salt.
• 3. For Sloppy Josés, mix the green chiles, jalapeño, hot pepper sauce, oregano and cumin into the ketchup mixture.
• 4. Stir the ketchup (or ketchup/chile) mixture into the browned beef mixture. Cover the pan and simmer it for 30 minutes.
• 5. Serve it up either open-faced or closed-faced on the buns, wrapped in flour tortillas or over hot baked potatoes.

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!).
