Time 4h10m

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 lb chuck roast (or your favorite roast)
2 large red onion (one thinly sliced, one quartered)
5 large jalapeno peppers, sliced lengthwise (seeds removed from 3 of them)
5 large garlic cloves, smashed
1 bunch lettuce, green leaf
1 bunch lettuce, red leaf
2 large tomatoes, cored and sliced
2 large avacados, ripe and sliced
8 oz feta cheese, crumbled
1 bottle good italian dressing (recommend brianna's)

Steps:

  • 1. Liberally season all sides of the roast with salt and pepper and place in a large Dutch oven over high heat. Quickly sear all sides of roast to achieve nice brown crust.
  • 2. Reduce heat to medium low and add enough water to to cover the bottom of the pan with about 1 inch of water.
  • 3. Add quartered onion, smashed garlic and chopped jalapenos. Cover and simmer for 3-4 hours until roast is very tender. (check water level periodically and add as needed)
  • 4. Once the roast is very tender, add beef bullion cubes, lightly mash up vegetables with a fork and simmer for another 30 minutes or so to reduce liquid to one half (i.e. reduce until there is about 1/2 ince of liquid in the bottom of pan)
  • 5. Wash and shred lettuce. Divide equally among serving plates.
  • 6. Arrange avacado, onion slices and tomoato slices on top of lettuce mixture.
  • 7. Once the liquid has reduced, remove from heat and transfer roast to a large bowl. With two forks, shred the beef entirely.
  • 8. Place equal portions of shredded beef on top of salad mixture and add crumbled feta cheese.
  • 9. Mix 2 parts Italian dressing with 1 part cooking liquid and dress salads with the mixture.
  • 10. Serve with warm crusty bread or just plain saltine crackers.

This salad is delicious. The beef is cooked perfectly and the feta adds a nice salty flavor. I also love the addition of the balsamic vinaigrette dressing.
