• Add the chiles and garlic to a saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and steep for 20 to 30 minutes. Pour off half the cooking liquid. Using an immersion blender, puree the peppers, garlic and remaining liquid until smooth. (Alternatively, you can use a regular blender. Be careful when blending hot or warm ingredients.)
• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the chuck roast with the salt, pepper, chile powder and cumin. When the oil is hot, add the meat to the Dutch oven and brown on all sides, about 3 minutes, then remove to a plate.
• Add the tomato paste and onion to the pot and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the stock, sugar, bay leaves and pepper puree to the pot and stir to combine. Return the beef to the pot and cover. Roast until the meat is fall-apart tender, 2 1/2 to 3 hours.

SLOW-COOKED BEEF IN RED SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Toast the guajillo chiles, california chiles, and chiles de arbol on the grill until they are charred in spots, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside to cool, then remove the stems and seeds and cut them in half. Put aside 6 guajillo halves. Soak the rest of the chiles in water, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the coriander, cumin, oregano, peppercorns, allspice, ginger, cloves, bay leaves, garlic and onion to a blender, and add enough of the soaked chiles to come about halfway up the blender cup. Add 1/2 cup of the chile soaking liquid and 1 cup water and process until very well blended and runny. Transfer to a large bowl. Blend the remaining soaked chiles with more water as needed.
• Heat 1/2 cup canola oil in a large saucepan over medium heat, then add the blended chile sauce and cook until it begins to simmer, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Bring 1/2 gallon of water to a boil in a large pot.
• Meanwhile, sprinkle the beef shanks on both sides with a pinch of salt. Heat the remaining 1/2 cup oil in a large, heavy skillet over very-high heat, then sear the beef shanks until a golden crust is formed, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Transfer the seared shanks to the pot of boiling water, then add the sauce and reserved 6 chile halves. Add the remaining 1/2 cup kosher salt to the mixture and boil over medium heat, uncovered, until the sauce reduces, 20 to 30 minutes. Cover and simmer over low heat until the meat is fork-tender, about 1 hour. Taste the sauce and add salt as needed.

Stir in 4 teaspoons of garlic, and cook and stir until fragrant, another 3 to 5 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning the garlic. Stir in the oregano, 3 1/2 teaspoons of chili powder, basil, salt and black pepper, 1 teaspoon of cumin, the dried cilantro, salsa, tomato sauce, tomato paste, and chicken broth until the sauce is smoothly combined.

Mix in 3/4 cup of onion, 1 tablespoon of garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of cumin into the meat, and cook and stir until the onions are softened and the meat mixture is fragrant with spices, 5 to 10 more minutes. Stir in the enchilada sauce and beef broth; simmer for 5 more minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup of Mexican cheese blend, and allow the cheese to melt into the meat sauce. Reduce heat to low, and simmer the meat sauce for 30 more minutes to thicken.

• Spread about 1/2 cup of the spicy red sauce over the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Fill each tortilla with the meat sauce, reserving about 1/2 cup of the meat sauce; roll the tortillas into enchiladas, and arrange in the baking dish, seam sides down. Pour the remaining spicy red sauce over the enchiladas. Sprinkle with the reserved 1/2 cup of meat mixture, and top with remaining 2 cups of Mexican cheese blend.
