This Green Chili Braised Beef recipe will be in your weekly rotation because it’s that easy and that delicious! It is made with 5 minutes of prep and a frozen roast. FROZEN! Not even thawed. This is so easy!
This is a dump and bake slow cooker recipe at its finest! You could prepare this dish in a slow cooker or a Dutch oven, or even a glass dish with a lid or inverted sheet tray (like I did here!). Most important thing is low and slow and keep it covered throughout cooking time.
Ingredients
Utensils
- Dutch oven or glass dish with lid
Instructions
Preheat oven to 300°F.
Add all ingredients to a Dutch oven or glass dish with a lid.
Bake for 5 hours or so until fork tender.
Shred up, discarding excess fat (and snack on the marrow!). Use it for tacos or anything else, really. Enjoy!
P.S. Use a slow cooker instead if you want, but I don’t know the exact time. Low and slow until fork tender.
