Authentic Carne Guisada Slow Cooker Recipes

SLOW-COOKER CARNE GUISADA

Steps:

• Season beef with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat 2 teaspoons oil over high. In 2 batches, cook beef until browned on all sides, 5 minutes per batch (add 2 teaspoons more oil for second batch). Transfer to a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker.

Add cumin, chili powder, oregano, and flour and cook 1 minute. Slowly pour broth into skillet, stirring until liquid is smooth. Simmer 2 minutes, then transfer mixture to slow cooker, along with tomatoes and bay leaves. Season to taste with salt and pepper and stir to combine. Cover and cook on high 6 hours. Serve in tortillas with cheese and cilantro.

EASY SLOW COOKER CARNE GUISADA

Steps:

• Combine beef, potatoes, onion, peppers, and garlic in a large bowl.
• In a small bowl, mix together the flour, chili powder, cumin, and salt. Toss the beef mixture with the flour mixture until evenly coated. Place the mixture into a slow cooker, and pour in enough beef broth to barely cover the meat. If you don't have quite enough, you can fill the rest of the way with water.
• Cook on Low until the beef is tender, 6 to 8 hours.

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!
