Carne Adovado......Greatness!!

I had some Carne Adovado when we went thru Albuquerque last week on our way to Durango. This is the time of year when the Hatch Chilis are ready and everyone was roasting them. I have always been intimidated with dried chilis and never used them but after watching a few You tube videos I decided to give it a shot. I let it sit in the fridge over night and plan on making tacos tonight. The meat was really flavorful and tender. I used a recipe from the American Test Kitchen. The link to the show with a video is listed below with all of the ingredients as well. I followed the recipe pretty close and it was not to hot at all. Enjoy.

Boy that looks fantastic. Wonder how it would be with some wild pork?

It’s excellent with feral pork, I prefer it.

Meat looks great! I love cooking with dried chilis.
