One 5-pound beef chuck roast, tied

3 cloves garlic, sliced

Kosher salt

Freshly cracked black pepper

3 T. all-purpose flour

3 T. beef suet or olive oil, divided

4 medium onions, sliced into ¼-in. thick half-moons

2 T. chile powder, or more, to taste

1 t. oregano

½ t. ground cumin

½ t. ground coriander

½ t. Tabasco

2 c. low-sodium beef broth

1 c. tomato sauce

¼ c. chopped cilantro or parsley

Polenta, hominy, or tortillas, for serving


 Preheat oven to 325°F.

     Cut several incisions in the meat and insert the sliced garlic. Season with 3 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper; rub evenly all over. Sprinkle and rub flour into meat, dusting off any excess.

     Melt 2 tablespoons beef suet or olive oil in a large braising pan over high heat and brown the meat well on all sides. Take care not to use a fork, but turn with the aid of two wooden spoons, a pair of spatulas, or tongs. When the meat is nicely colored, about 3 minutes per side, transfer to a plate. Wipe out any burnt bits from the pan and reduce heat to medium. Add 1 tablespoon beef suet or olive oil and the onions and sauté until they are just softened, about 5 minutes.

     Add chile powder, oregano, coriander, cumin, Tabasco, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper, sprinkling evenly about the pot, and cook in the fat until toasted and aromatic, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the broth, tomato sauce, and return meat with collected juices back to the pan; bring to a boil. Cover the pot and roast in oven until fork-tender or until the meat registers about 160°F internally, 2½  to 3 hours.

     When meat is tender and starting to fall apart, remove the butcher twine and place roast on a warm platter. Taste and correct the seasoning of the sauce, if needed. Spoon sauce over the roast. Garnish with cilantro or parsley. Serve with polenta, hominy, and tortillas.
