Ricks Crock Pot Carne Guisada Recipes

CROCK POT CARNE GUISADA

Steps:

• *METHOD 1: If using rump roast, simply place all ingredients into crock pot. Whisk corn starch in with a bit of beef stock before adding to the pot.
• Cook on low for 6-7 hours.
• For best results, stir all ingredients about 1-2 hours into cooking.
• *METHOD 2: If using chuck roast, brown both sides of the roast in a pot before putting it in the crock pot. My new favorite thing to do is to completely omit the crock pot. I brown the chuck roast in a dutch oven, then add remaining ingredients and cook it in a 300 degree oven for about 4 hours, or until the meat is so tender that it pulls apart easily with a fork.
• The tenderness of method 2 (with dutch oven) is absolutely mouth-watering!
• If using a chuck roast, don't forget to pick out all the pieces of fat before serving. You wouldn't want to bite into a piece of that!
• Try it whichever way you like, you won't be disappointed!

RICK'S CROCK POT CARNE GUISADA

Steps:

• Cut the meat into bite sized cubes, put into crock pot. Add the garlic, onion and chilis. Add the tomato paste and stock. Add all remaining ingredients except tortillas. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours. Serve with tortillas and Spanish rice.
• Warning: I've made my own recipe recently and it was disastrous. I tried to rate it, but wasn't able to. I've made it with good results in the past, but if I can't get consistent results you probably can't either.

CARNE ASADA

Steps:

• Place the skirt steak in a large glass bowl or resealable plastic bag.
• To make the marinade, add the cilantro, olive oil, orange juice, lime juice, honey, oregano, garlic and serrano chile to a blender. Season with a small pinch of salt and pepper. Blend for 35 to 40 seconds to combine.
• Pour the marinade all over the steak, moving it around to make sure everything is covered. Cover or seal and transfer to the refrigerator and allow to marinate for at least 1 hour, but no more than 6 (too long in the marinade will cause the steak to begin breaking down).
• Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
• When ready, remove the steak from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper and grill about 4 minutes per side for medium.
• Remove to a cutting board and allow to rest for 5 to 7 minutes. Slice the steak against the grain and serve with the lime wedges.

CARNE GUISADA (MEXICAN BEEF STEW)

Steps:

• Gather your ingredients.
• Rinse off the beef cubes and pat dry. Place flour in a bag or bowl and coat the beef cubes. Next, heat your oil in a pan and brown the meat for about 5 minutes and then place in your crockpot.
• Next, saute your onions, garlic and bell peppers. Pour your bottle of beer over the meat in the crock pot and then add your sauteed vegetable. Next, add the rest of your ingredients. No need to cut up the chipotle or serranos as they break down while cooking. Cook this on low and slow for 8 to 10 hours. Serve in warm flour tortillas with shredded cheese and a small dollop of sour cream if desired or a squeeze of lime and fresh cilantro. (This is a thick stew, so if it's not thick enough add a mixture of flour and water.)
• SUPREME TACO: Alright, now if you really want this Carne Guisada to go along way you can make a Supreme Taco and the base starts with refried beans.
• SUPREME TACO: Heat the beans in a skillet until nice and hot. Then, spread the beans out on the flour tortilla.
• SUPREME TACO: Add your Carne Guisada on top of beans, maybe 4 pieces of meat and a generous amount of Mexican cheese blend. Next, add sour cream and some fresh chopped cilantro. Now, if you are going to make this for a larger crowd make up the tacos yourself and wrap then in a square piece of tinfoil. You can get a nice big box of already cut square tinfoil at Sam's Club. When you wrap them up the cheese is going to melt and they are just wonderful.
• 11-26-13 ---Made this for Girl's Night In which was perfect for the chilli night we had here in Ohio. I served it with some Mexican rice, warmed tortillas and a non-alcoholic Sangria. We had a broccoli salad before and apple dumplings w/vanilla ice cream for dessert.
• 10/20/14 --- Cooked up my Carne Guisada in my Ninja as I had to get it done faster than I usually do with a 8 to 10 hr cook in the traditional crock-pot. I was able to cook it up in 4 1/2 hours. I served it with Mexican rice, cheesy dip & chips for dinner.
