Notes
Beef chuck roast
: You can use a similar cut of beef, like a shoulder roast or arm roast, in this recipe.
Onion
: You'll need about 1.5 cups of diced onion. I like to use a sweet white or sweet yellow onion.
Green chilies
: I use mild green chilies, but you can use hotter chilies for more kick.
Beef broth
: I like to use reduced-sodium broth to better control the salt level. You can use regular or no salt if you prefer.
Dry mustard
: I use ground dry mustard powder in this recipe.
Adobo seasoning
: You'll need the Adobo seasoning blend with cumin and garlic (I use Goya).
Salsa:
I use a mild, chunky garden salsa, but you can use medium or hot if you prefer.
