SMOKY PULLED BEEF TACOS


Makes 12

INGREDIENTS

12 Farrah’s Taco Tortillas
1 Farrah's Hickory BBQ Spice Mix
Beef brisket
Shredded lettuce
Guacamole
Sour cream
Hot sauce
Olive oil
Garlic clove
Onion (diced)
1/4 cup orange juice
1 Tbsp lime juice
Crushed tomatoes
1 cup beef stock
Water

METHOD

  1. Season beef with some of the spice mix and cook in a
    large pot on a high heat in olive oil until browned.
    Put aside.

  2. Reduce heat to medium, add garlic and onion and cook
    until soft.

  3. Add the beef, orange and lime juices, remaining spice mix,
    canned tomatoes, beef stock and enough water so that
    the beef is almost entirely submerged.

  4. Bring to a simmer, before turning the heat down and
    simmering without the lid for 2 hours, then with the lid on for
    another 30 mins (or until the beef is tender).

  5. Remove beef and shred apart. Leave sauce to simmer with
    lid removed for 10-15 minutes to reduce and thicken.

  6. Toss beef in sauce and serve in warmed Tortillas with fillings.

  • Makes for a tasty starter at a social gathering.
  • The pulled beef can be cooked in advance and stored in the fridge for a day or two.
  • To add some heat garnish with a little chopped red chilli or jalapeno.
