Crock Pot Cuban Beef
August 3, 2021 • 0 comments
Use Together Farms chuck roast to put a latin flair on Midwest meat. Pair this juicy, slow stewed Cuban Beef with riced cauliflower, regular rice, or quinoa. Cozy up with this sweet yet savory comfort food. Cumin and smoked paprika are the stars of the show, adding a deep, smoky flavor and exotic spiciness. Tomato paste and beef broth help catch all of the seasonings, and create a sauce for the Cuban beef to cook in. The sauce is oh-so-delicious and great for spooning over the cauliflower rice. Pan-fried plantain slices would also compliment this Cuban dish. I hope you try this recipe for your family!
