    so good... I used chipotle peppers in adobo as I didn't have dried. These were great exactly as suggested, but I did cook the meat for almost an hour longer.

    This dish came out great! I made the following adjustments: 1. Used fresh pasilla chiles which I sauteed with the onions, instead of the jarred peppers; 2. Chicken stock and beer for simmering liquid; 3. Added some smoked paprika, oregano and freshly ground dried ancho chiles. I froze most of it and brought it up to my son when I went to his football game. (The TSA enjoyed searching my carry on bag!. He and his room mate said it was incredible -- they went though about 5 pounds of it in two days.

    I'm going to try this with pork shoulder for this weekend's tailgate vevent. I will probably adjust the seasoning -- maybe omit the paprika and add cumin and coriander.

    They are hot will cut back on pepper's will do one next time rather than 2 and will also cut the beef broth in half .Had too much broth left after cooking .I used twice the meat that this call's for with same amount of everything else and it was still great but very hot and I love spicy food ...Will never eat short rib taco's out again this is a great base recipe .Will try this in a toasted roll and but some provolone cheese on top bet that would be great too ...

    I seen this show and new I had to try this recipe. I had recently watched the Mexican made easy show and wanted to try the Rajas, so I decided to make these two dishes, minus the jarred roasted peppers, at the same time. I instantly fell in love with the combination. This has moved up to my number one favorite recipe. Thank you for this and please bring on more flavorful dishes.

    I saw this episode and immediately decided to try it. Unfortunately, I did not have beef, I had pork, but knowing that it really didn't matter, I went ahead and used it. I also did not have chipotles but did have other peppers and a dash of habanero infused oil for heat. I stuck it in the oven and OMG!!! It was so tender and flavorful...I love BDH. I think the recipes are down to earth and Aaron makes the cooking look so easy I was able to pull it off even though I didn't have the exact ingredients. I came out with a delicious meal and since it's just me I was able to pig out on the meat for days. On my next shopping trip I bought chipotles and cannot wait to use this as a base to entertain for friends and family (I'm gonna try the short ribs-yum!.
