JK, but you're gonna be farting like crazy tonight, might want to set up a fan next to your bed, so that you don't pass out, that's a whole lot of beans, bro.

 

Just consumed a large bowl of beans, macaroni and beef in a black bean sauce on my lunch break here at work.

 

It hit the spot and makes me want to go home early and take a nap.

Pulled beef/pork/chicken with mole sauce.

 

Majority of ingredients are to taste, so I won't put many specifics on ingredient ammounts.

 

What you'll need:

 

Crock pot/Slow cooker

The ammount of meat depends on how many you'll be serving. 1 kilo, Aprox 2.5lbs, will serve about 10 people or enough leftovers to feed 2 for a week or longer (excess portions are easily frozen)

Garlic finely chopped

Onions finely chopped

1 bottle BBQ sauce per 2.5lbs of meat

Cinamon

Crushed chilis or dried chipotle chilis or chipotle chilis in adobo sauce

Dark chocolate with a high cocoa content (50% or higher works best)

 

Put the meat of choice in the crock pot along with all the other ingredients except for the chocolate. Cook on low 8-10 hrs. If possible turn roast in the sauce so it stays moist every 2-3 hrs, if not no big deal.

For the last hour of cooking add the chocolate. Be sure to use a wisk or a 'stick' blender to make sure the melted chocolate homogenises with the sauce and ingredients. I added about 50g of the dark, high cocoa content, chocolate and everyone that eaten this has raved about the undertones it gives to the dish.

 

To shred the meat just use 2 forks and pull the meat apart. This won't be even a slight problem as the meat will literally just fall apart. You can portion this up to be easily frozen and rewarmed later.

 

When serving add some of the sauce to the shredded meat. This is all according to personal taste. If you like it saucy add lots, if you like it dryer add less. This can also depend on what you plan on actually using the shredded meat for. This recipe can be used in so many different things. Burritos, tostadas, sandwiches, omelet filling the list could go on and on.
