Crock Pot Carne Guisada (Mexican Beef Stew) image

This was one of my mother-in-law's recipes and I just loved it. Of course she didn't even own a crock pot so everything was done "old school". I adapted her recipe to a crock pot version and it turns out similar to hers. Of course nobody can cook like or mothers and mother-in-laws but my husband let this pass. ;)

I'm not sure what went wrong, but this recipe didn't turn out well for me.

I think this recipe would be better if it was cooked in a Dutch oven instead of a crock pot.

This recipe was a disaster. The beef was tough and the sauce was bland.

This recipe was a little too spicy for my taste, but it was still very good.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. I love that I can throw all the ingredients in the crock pot in the morning and dinner is ready when I get home from work.

This crock pot carne guisada was a hit with my family! The beef was fall-apart tender and the sauce was flavorful and rich. I served it with rice and beans, and it was the perfect comfort food for a cold night.
