Beef Carnitas in Instant Pot
A must try! It is so delicious that you would like to eat beef carnitas every week :)
I like my food a little spicy so I use 3 jalapenos and 3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. If you don't like it spicy, I would recommend using 1 jalapeno and 1 chipotle pepper.
Ingredients:
Mix all spices together:
2 tbsp. salt
2 tbsp. brown sugar1 tbsp. ground cumin
1 tbsp. smoked paprika
1 tbsp. chili powder
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. ground mustard
1 tsp. dried oregano
1 tsp. cayenne pepper
3 lbs. boneless beef chuck roast, cut in large cubes
2 large sweet onions thinly sliced
2 or 3 jalapeno peppers, thinly sliced
2 or 3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped
1 jar (16 oz) medium or hot salsa
tortillas
toppings (optional)
Preparation:
1) Rub the roast with the spice mixture (I use about 1/3 (1/2) of the mixture, I keep the remaining spice mix for next time)
2) Select sauté on the pressure cooker and adjust for high heat. Add 3 tbsp. oil and brown the meat on all sides.
5) Allow pressure to manually release for 10 min.
6) Remove the beef from the instant pot and shred with 2 forks
7) Place on top of warm tortillas and serve with your favorite toppings. (The meat is so delicious, I only use cilantro and sour cream)
8) Enjoy!
