Chimachungas

CHIMACHUNGAS (Amy DeMordaunt)

3-5 lb. chuck roast
4 TBSP. flour
3 TBSP. shortening
Large flour tortillas
10 oz. picante sauce

Toppings: Shredded lettuce, tomatoes, olives, grated cheese, salsa, sour cream are good.

I cook the roast in the crock pot on high for 6 7 hours or on low for 12-14 hours. Cool and shred. Melt shortening. Add other ingredients; cook for 1 minute. Stir in reserved juices from meat. Cook until thick. Add more flour, if needed.

Place 1/3 cup meat mixture in upper third or tortilla. Fold top over, sides in, and roll. Place, seam side sown, in roasting pan, well buttered. Butter the top of each chimachunga. Bake at 500' for 8¬10 minutes.

You can also use shredded or canned chicken instead of beef. We use this meat for tacos, too.

Chili

CHILI (Carol Reed)

This is my favorite Chili recipe which I love to put in the crockpot.

2-3 cups beans (Kidney or chili beans)
1 lb hamburger
1 onion, chopped
Garlic Salt
Salt/Pepper
1/4 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp red pepper seeds
1/2 cup green pepper, chopped
8 oz. can tomato sauce
Can diced tomatoes
1/3 cup water (or so)

Brown hamburger & add chopped onion, green pepper, cook till veggies are soft. Add the rest of the ingredients and simmer all afternoon. Add grated cheese right before eating.

Must Serve with Mary Jones Corn Bread!!!

BBQ Pork Sandwiches

3 pounds boneless pork shoulder, pork butt, or pork sirloin roast
1 teaspoons salt (I use coarse, kosher salt)
½ teaspoon black pepper (I use coarsely ground)
2 cups water or low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons liquid smoke
3 cups BBQ sauce (plus more for serving)

Cut pork roast into large 4-inch pieces. Season pork on all sides with salt & pepper. (Heather browns each side of pork roast or chops)

Slow Cooker Directions: add water or broth & liquid smoke to slow cooker. Add pork. Cover & cook on low 8-10 hours or high for 5-6 hours, until the pork is fall-apart tender.

Remove pork from slow cooker & discard most of the remaining liquid (leave about 1/4 cup). Shred pork using a couple of forks - it should easily fall apart into pieces. Place meat back in slow cooker.

Add BBQ sauce (Heather only adds BBQ Sauce to individual sandwiches based on personal preference) & heat through (or keep on warm for several hours).

Serve on buns with extra barbecue sauce.
