I have always loved the barbacoa at Chipotle® and tried to duplicate it at home. This is an excellent comfort food. Wrap it in a tortilla with black beans, cheese, pico de gallo, and guacamole and it is heaven.

Time 7h5m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 13

⅓ cup apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons lime juice
4 canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, or more to taste
4 teaspoons minced garlic
4 teaspoons cumin
2 teaspoons oregano
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground cloves
1 (4 pound) chuck roast, or more to taste
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
¾ cup chicken broth
3 bay leaves

Steps:

  • Combine vinegar, lime juice, chipotle peppers in adobo, garlic, cumin, oregano, black pepper, salt, and cloves in a blender or food processor. Process on high until adobo sauce is smooth.
  • Trim most of the fat from the roast and cut meat into 3-inch chunks.
  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
  • Heat oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add meat and cook on all sides until browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer seared meat to a Dutch oven and pour adobo sauce on top. Pour in chicken broth and add bay leaves.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until very tender, about 6 hours.
  • Discard bay leaves. Shred meat in the juices using 2 forks. Return to the oven and cook 30 minutes more.

This barbacoa is fall-off-the-bone tender and so flavorful! I made it in my slow cooker and it was perfect. The meat was so juicy and the sauce was amazing. I will definitely be making this again.
