Ingredients

  • 3 pound brisket

Blended sauce

  • 15 ounce can of tomato sauce
  • 1/4 medium yellow onion
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoon adobo sauce
  • 2 chilies from adobo sauce add more for heat
  • 4 dried guajillo chili, stems & seeds removed
  • 2 dried ancho peppers, stems & seeds removed
  • 1 beef bouillon cube, crumbled
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • First, using gloves remove the stems and seeds from the dried chilies.
  • In a pot, add the cleaned chilies, onion and garlic. Bring water to a boil then lower to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes to soften everything.
  • Once chilies are hydrated, drain the water and add ingredients into a blender. Also, toss in the bouillon cube, tomato sauce, brown sugar, abode sauce and chilies. Blend everything until smooth. Then stir in the cumin and oregano.
  • Place the brisket into the crockpot. Then, pour the blended sauce over the top.
  • Turn the crockpot on high for 6 hours. Allow the brisket to cook until tender enough to shred apart with a fork.
  • Once done, allow to cool a bit then serve over tortillas with your favorite topping.
