Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.
- Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
- Trim the outside fat off of the chuck roast. Season the chuck roast evenly with cumin, chili powder, paprika, oregano, coriander, sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper, to taste, on both sides of the roast.
- Place the beef in the hot Dutch oven and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side.
- Add the beef broth, whole green chiles, jalapeno, cilantro, and minced garlic. Place the lid on the Dutch oven and place it into the oven for 2-3 hours, checking hourly to be sure you don’t need to add more broth.
- The beef is done when the tender meat shreds easily with a fork. Carefully, remove any fat from the meat then shred the beef using a fork.

- Heat beans in a small saucepan over low heat until warm.
- Layer each corn tortilla with beef, caramelized onions, beans, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, green onions, cilantro, salsa & sour cream. Serve immediatrly. Enjoy!
