Ingredients

🥩 1 chuck roast
🧂 Salt
🧂 Pepper
🌶️ Chipotle powder
🥣 2 cups beef broth
🧄 4 cloves of garlic, minced
🧅 1 red onion, chopped
🌶️ 1 pack of Birria seasoning blend (or use homemade blend if available)
🧀 2 cups Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
🧀 2 cups Queso cheese, shredded
🌶️ 1 bag of Doritos
🥣 Queso dip (optional, for extra cheesiness)
🥗 Pico de gallo, for topping

Instructions

1- Prep the Chuck Roast:

Season the chuck roast generously with salt, pepper, and chipotle powder.

2- Sear the Meat:

In a large pot or Dutch oven, sear the chuck roast on all sides over medium-high heat until brown.
Once seared, remove from the pot and set aside.

3- Deglaze the Pot:

Add a little beef broth to the pot to deglaze.
Stir to lift all the flavorful bits from the bottom.

4- Sauté Aromatics:

Add minced garlic and chopped red onion to the pot.
Sauté until the onions are translucent.

5- Add Birria Seasoning:

Sprinkle the Birria seasoning into the pot.
Bloom it for extra flavor.

6- Cook the Meat:

Place the chuck roast back in the pot.
Add the rest of the beef broth.
Cover the pot and place it in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
After that, uncover and let it cook for another 1 hour and 20 minutes until the beef is tender and juicy.

7- Build the Nachos:

On a large serving platter, layout Doritos as the base.
Add shredded Monterey Jack and Queso cheese on top.
Layer the hot, juicy birria beef over the cheese.

8- Top It Off:

Sprinkle additional queso dip over the top, if desired.
Finish with a generous scoop of Pico de Gallo.

9- Serve Immediately:

Serve the nachos hot, with a side of consommé for dipping.
