CARNE GUISADA (MEXICAN BEEF STEW)
A luscious, tender Mexican beef stew with very basic ingredients. The oven baking makes the meat extremely tender, and the cumin gives it so much flavor! This is a typical Mexican beef stew, simple, with not a lot of vegetables. Serve folded up in warm tortillas, or on rice or with your favorite cornbread.

CARNE GUISADA - SLOW COOKER (MEXICAN BEEF STEW)
This recipe is so easy! Typically this Mexican stew is labor intensive and requires babysitting. Not this recipe, the slow cooker does all the hard work. Filled with robust flavors and fresh vegetables, this will definitely warm ya up on a cold night.

CROCK POT CARNE GUISADA (MEXICAN BEEF STEW)
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. ;)

CARNE GUISADA (MEXICAN BEEF STEW)
While living in San Antonio, Texas and working at a Mexican restaurant I fell in love with this Mexican Stew. It is so flavorful and delicious that it is in my top 3 favorite dishes to make that's Mexican. Regular beef stew does not compare to the taste of this stew. I had to learn how to make it myself because since I left...

Steps:
- 1. Gather your ingredients.
- 2. Rinse off the beef cubes and pat dry. Place flour in a bag or bowl and coat the beef cubes. Next, heat your oil in a pan and brown the meat for about 5 minutes and then place in your crockpot.
- 3. Next, saute your onions, garlic and bell peppers. Pour your bottle of beer over the meat in the crock pot and then add your sauteed vegetable. Next, add the rest of your ingredients. No need to cut up the chipotle or serranos as they break down while cooking. Cook this on low and slow for 8 to 10 hours. Serve in warm flour tortillas with shredded cheese and a small dollop of sour cream if desired or a squeeze of lime and fresh cilantro. (This is a thick stew, so if it's not thick enough add a mixture of flour and water.)
- 4. SUPREME TACO: Alright, now if you really want this Carne Guisada to go along way you can make a Supreme Taco and the base starts with refried beans.
- 5. SUPREME TACO: Heat the beans in a skillet until nice and hot. Then, spread the beans out on the flour tortilla.
- 6. SUPREME TACO: Add your Carne Guisada on top of beans, maybe 4 pieces of meat and a generous amount of Mexican cheese blend. Next, add sour cream and some fresh chopped cilantro. Now, if you are going to make this for a larger crowd make up the tacos yourself and wrap then in a square piece of tinfoil. You can get a nice big box of already cut square tinfoil at Sam's Club. When you wrap them up the cheese is going to melt and they are just wonderful.
- 7. 11-26-13 ---Made this for Girl's Night In which was perfect for the chilli night we had here in Ohio. I served it with some Mexican rice, warmed tortillas and a non-alcoholic Sangria. We had a broccoli salad before and apple dumplings w/vanilla ice cream for dessert.
- 8. 10/20/14 --- Cooked up my Carne Guisada in my Ninja as I had to get it done faster than I usually do with a 8 to 10 hr cook in the traditional crock-pot. I was able to cook it up in 4 1/2 hours. I served it with Mexican rice, cheesy dip & chips for dinner.
MEXICAN CARNE GUISADA
Try this Mexican Carne Guisada for Cinco de Mayo or your next taco night. The meat becomes tender and very flavorful. The tenderness is enhanced when the meat simmers in beef broth. That broth cooks down into a delicious sauce that coats the meat. These tacos have a real authentic flavor. Serve on tortillas with cheese, sour...
