Good basic recipe. I like to use the tough and tasty cuts rather than chuck. i.e, shank, short ribs cut in bits, all browned in some rendered beef suet. A little grease enhances flavor and smoothness. Oh yeah, throw the rib and shank bones in the pot too.

I have made this several times. Great recipe.
Def store it overnight, allows it to thicken and the meat to absorb the spices.
Cilantro and Soar Cream makes it even better. Highly recommend.
