How to Make Carne En Su Jugo Estilo Tapatio

  1. Fry the chopped bacon in a large frying pan over medium-low heat until crisp (about 8-10 minutes). Remove with a slotted spoon, drain on paper towels, and set aside.
  2. Increase heat to medium-high. Add the beef cubes to the bacon drippings and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until browned.
  3. Transfer the seared beef to a large, heavy pot or Dutch oven.
  4. In a blender, combine the chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, and 1 cup of beef broth. Blend until completely smooth.
  5. Pour the chipotle mixture into the pot with the beef. Add the remaining beef broth, bay leaves, salt, and pepper.
  6. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the beef is very tender.
  7. While the beef simmers, gently warm the drained beans in a separate saucepan over medium-low heat.
  8. Once the beef is cooked, divide the warmed beans evenly among four bowls.
  9. Ladle the beef and its flavorful broth over the beans in each bowl.
  10. Garnish each bowl with crispy bacon, cilantro, sliced onions, and avocado slices.
  11. Serve immediately with the diced serrano peppers and lime wedges on the side, along with a generous serving of tortilla chips. Enjoy!
