Ingredients

  • 3 pound chuck roast
  • 8 ounces mushrooms
  • 2 large bell peppers
  • 2 large onions
  • 1 Tbsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 3 cups water

Instructions

  • Season the chuck roast with the salt and pepper. 
  • Smoke chuck roast according to your smokers instructions.  On the pit barrel smoker a 3-4 pound chuck roast will take 2-3 hours.  Cook to 160-165F and remove and bring inside.
  • Chop chuck roast into bite sized pieces.  
  • Add chuck roast pieces to large pan, add 3 cups of water and cover.  Cook chuck roast for 1 hour on medium to medium-low heat.
  • Chop mushrooms into quarters.  Chop peppers up into strips.  Slice onions up into strips.
  • After 1 hour of cooking remove lid and turn up heat to medium-high.  Cook off excess moisture.  Let meat sear for 5-10 minutes.  To get a good sear work in batches and let meat brown.   Remove meat and set aside covered.
  • Saute the mushrooms, peppers, and onions in the same pan as the meat to get all the good meat flavor.  5-10 minutes on medium-high heat should give the veggies a nice sear.   
  • Plate the seared smoked chuck roast with all the veggies.  Serve with warm tortillas, cilantro, limes, jalapenos, and sour cream.  Enjoy!
