This Slow Cooker Ancho Chile Beef delivers rich, smoky Mexican flavors without overwhelming heat. By soaking and blending dried ancho chiles—dried poblanos with a subtle, raisin-like sweetness—you create a deep, flavorful paste that slowly tenderizes a beef chuck roast. After several hours in the slow cooker, you get melt-in-your-mouth shredded beef with complex, “birria-style” flavor that far surpasses anything from a standard seasoning packet.
