Ingredient notes
- Beef cattle: This cut beef is rich in connective tissue and breaks down during slow cooking to produce meaty beef that is perfect for chopping.
- garlic: Added depth and classic salty kick.
- Sea salt and black pepper: It is crucial to balance the taste and enhance the natural richness of beef.
- Ground cumin: Provides warm, earthy notes of signatures in traditional barbacoa.
- Mexican oregano: A little citrus herb gives this dish a real taste.
- Chili canned chili: Brings calories and smoky smell; use more or less according to spice preference.
- Adobo sauce: Adds smoky, spicy and rich flavors – don’t skip it!
- Beef soup: Infuses the rich flavor of the meat and keeps it juicy while cooking.
- Chopped cilantro: Bright, fresh filling to balance the rich meat.
Beef beef s, Chuck grilled or beef cheeks are good choices because of their fat content and connective tissue.
While this isn’t cooked in an underground oven, it’s a slow cooker version of authentic barbacoa that can be simplified for home cooks.
