spicy shredded beef burritos~robynne
Adapted from a copycat version of Chipotle Mexican Grill Barbacoa Burritos. I make them and my husband say's "Chipotle's got nothin' on you, honey"! I usually make the beef the day before I serve the burritos and reheat and adjust seasoning, as needed, but this is not necessary. Serve with your favorite salsa, guacamole and don't forget the sour cream! Thanks to Bonnie Dare for the great rice recipe "Cilantro Lime Rice" found on this site! Disclaimer: I have always used recipes as a guide and use my instincts and experience to alter or omit ingredients as I cook. Therefore, it has always been a challenge when sharing recipes with others. I doubt I make dishes the same way twice. So, I advise you to use my recipes the same way.

-
3Pour the adobo sauce over the meat and add in the beef broth and bay leaves. Cover and roast in 325 F degree oven for approx. 5 hours or until tender.
-
4While roast is cooking, add all the bean ingredients in a crock pot and heat on high until bubbling, stir and simmer on low heat until ready to serve.
-
5When roast is done, let cool and remove the butchers twine and bay leaves. Shred the beef using two forks and remove excess fat as you shred. Adjust seasoning if needed and simmer on low heat until ready to serve.
