SOUTH TEXAS CARNE GUISADA
In this recipe, chunks of lean beef are simmered with fresh tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, garlic, and Mexican seasonings to make a rich spicy gravy (guisada). Serve with warm tortillas and garnish with guacamole, sour cream, and/or cheddar cheese for awesome guisada tacos. If your gravy is too thin, whisk a 1/2 cup of the gravy with 1 tablespoon of flour and stir it back into the meat mixture; cook until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.

CARNE GUISADA (STEWED BEEF)
Among the most recognizable dishes of my culture, carne guisada will cure what ails you. Beef is slowly braised with aromatic sofrito and tomatoes, producing a rich, delicious dish you're likely to eat too much of. For those who have lived in Puerto Rican enclaves such as New York, Philadelphia, Chicago or Orlando, Fla., this is a daily staple at cafeteria-style lunch counters, as it is on the island. You can also use this recipe to make pollo guisado, equally popular and common, simply by using chicken and adjusting the cooking time accordingly.

Steps:
- Prepare the adobo: Combine the adobo ingredients in a small bowl, or blend in a large pilón or mortar and pestle.
- Prepare the guisado: Pat meat dry and put in a medium lidded bowl or a resealable bag. Evenly coat with the adobo and let marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or in the refrigerator overnight.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large lidded, heavy-bottomed pot over high. Working in batches as needed to prevent crowding, add beef, shaking loose any additional adobo beforehand. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, flipping often to brown evenly. Transfer meat to a clean bowl and set aside.
- Lower heat to medium, add 1 tablespoon olive oil and pour in sofrito, adding olive oil as needed if the pan is too dry. Sauté for 5 to 7 minutes until liquid has evaporated.
- Add sazón and sauté for 1 minute. Add the broth (or water), tomatoes and their juices, and bay leaves, and scrape up any browned bits using a wooden spoon.
- Nestle meat into sauce and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, then cover with a lid and simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
- Add carrot and celery, and cook, covered, for 1 more hour, adding more water or broth if needed. At this stage, check the tenderness of the meat. It should start to get close to falling apart when pressed with the back of a spoon.
- Add potatoes and cook, covered, for 30 minutes more, until meat and potatoes are cooked through and tender.
- Adjust salt to taste, and serve on a plate or in a shallow bowl over a mound of white rice.

CROCK POT CARNE GUISADA
We love carne guisada around our house. This is a really easy recipe! FYI: I always go to my local meat market and have them cut a good looking rump roast into stew meat. It saves me the time of having to cube the meat myself and that way i get to pick out the best cut of meat. Also, if you like spicy, leave the seeds in one or two of the jalapenos. **UPDATE- I have recently improved this recipe to a point that I almost removed some of the original parts from what I had posted. Instead, I am adding options for the meat and cooking method. Please let me know which method you used if you rate this.

Steps:
- *METHOD 1: If using rump roast, simply place all ingredients into crock pot. Whisk corn starch in with a bit of beef stock before adding to the pot.
- Cook on low for 6-7 hours.
- For best results, stir all ingredients about 1-2 hours into cooking.
- *METHOD 2: If using chuck roast, brown both sides of the roast in a pot before putting it in the crock pot. My new favorite thing to do is to completely omit the crock pot. I brown the chuck roast in a dutch oven, then add remaining ingredients and cook it in a 300 degree oven for about 4 hours, or until the meat is so tender that it pulls apart easily with a fork.
- The tenderness of method 2 (with dutch oven) is absolutely mouth-watering!
- If using a chuck roast, don't forget to pick out all the pieces of fat before serving. You wouldn't want to bite into a piece of that!
- Try it whichever way you like, you won't be disappointed!

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, flank steak, or brisket are all good options for carne guisada. These cuts are tough, but they become tender when cooked slowly in a flavorful sauce.
- Brown the beef before stewing: Browning the beef adds flavor and helps to prevent it from becoming tough.
- Use a flavorful cooking liquid: The cooking liquid is what gives carne guisada its flavor. Use a combination of beef broth, tomato sauce, and chili peppers for a classic flavor. You can also add other ingredients like onions, garlic, cumin, and oregano to taste.
- Simmer the carne guisada for at least 1 hour: The longer you simmer the carne guisada, the more tender it will become. Simmer it for at least 1 hour, or until the beef is fall-apart tender.
- Serve the carne guisada with your favorite sides: Carne guisada is traditionally served with rice, beans, and tortillas. You can also serve it with other sides like mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or salad.
Conclusion:
Carne guisada is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is a great way to use up leftover beef, and it can be easily customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a hearty and flavorful meal, give carne guisada a try!
