Ingredients
  • 5 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 medium onion
  • 1 lime juice
  • 2-4 tbsp chipotles in adobo sauce
  • 1 tbsp ground cumin
  • 1 tbsp ground oregano
  • 1/2 tsp ground cloves
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 lbs beef eye of round or bottom round roast
  • 2 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • black pepper
  • 1 tsp oil
  • 3 bay leaves
Instructions
  1. 1. Place garlic, onion, lime juice, cumin, oregano, chipotles, cloves and water in a blender and puree until smooth.
  2. 2. Cut the meat into 3-inch pieces. Season with 2 teaspoons salt and black pepper. Heat the pressure cooker on high (use sauté button for Instant Pot), when hot add the oil and brown the meat, in batches on all side, about 5 minutes. Add the sauce from the blender and bay leaves, cover and cook on high pressure until the meat is tender and easily shreds with 2 forks, about 1 hour. (If you’re making this on the stove, simmer it on low at least 4 hours, adding more water as needed to make sure it doesn’t dry out.)
  3. 3. Once cooked and the meat is tender, remove the meat and place in a dish. Shred with two forks, and reserve the liquid for later (discard the bay leaf). Return the shredded meat to the pot, add 1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste, 1/2 tsp cumin and 1 1/2 cups of the reserved liquid.
