Barbacoa de Camblin (Recipe)

I made this with 30 minutes to spare before works while cooking eggs this morning. I literally threw everything in a crock-pot for 8 hours and perfection followed. You can go to allrecipes.com if you want but this Irish-American may have just one upped our friends south of the border with this one. You'll be saying "Damnnnnnn Danielllll" because I'm back at it again.

Ingredients:

1.5-2lbs of Beef Boneless Country Spare Ribs, Chuck or Flank Steak (your preference)

2 cups Beef Broth

1 can medium chipotle sauce 8oz

1 can of tomatoes with chili and lime 16oz

½ cup apple cider vinegar

½ cup brown sugar

Half a red onion

2-3 Cloves of Garlic

1 Serrano Pepper (if you don’t like it spicy leave out)

2 teaspoons cumin

2 bay leaves

2 teaspoons garlic powder

Juice of 1 lime

Salt & pepper

Optional: Liquid smoke (trust me, not optional when you taste it with)

Directions:

1. Throw your previous conceptions of Barbacoa out of the window; I did it my own damn way (Trust me, I’m Irish).

2. Throw everything in the crock-pot on low for 8 hours.

3. Reserve as much of the liquid as you can and place in a blender until pureed.

4. Add contents to a saucepan, bring to a boil and reduce on stove for about 30 minutes.

5. Reintroduce with beef and let stoop in crock-pot for a few minutes or until you grab another cerveza. Pro Tip: Modelo.

1. Grab it with your hands and eat it like a baby eats cake on its first birthday. Pay not attention to the 3rd degree burns. Rinse and repeat.
