Followed the recipe exactly and used stew meat instead of flank steak. This was delicious and a hit with the whole family!

I liked this. Next time I would add something to make it spicy. We ate it with rice...yum!

This is so easy to make and very good. Have had it at a few Cuban restaurants and this is very close. I highly recommend trying it.

I cooked this as an example of Cuban food, and it turned out pretty well. http://hetzelkitchen.blogspot.com/2012/04/cuba.html

I'm honestly not sure what ropa vieja should taste like, I was just looking for a way to use up some flank steak. This was just okay. Easy, but not overly impressive, a bit bland.

This recipe was very easy to make and the taste was enjoyed by all, so for a busy weeknight meal, I will definitely make it again. Thank you!

I added two sliced red peppers to this, and made a batch of sofrito sauce ( http://www.tasteofcuba.com/sofrito.html ) to this recipe. The kids put theirs in large tortillas and ate it like fajitas, I had mine spread out on a bed of black beans and rice. This is a delicious dish, that you can experiment with and make in several different ways.

Have made it 3x already, the first time was to bring to a party so I decided that the easiest way to served it was on tostadas,(fried/baked corn tortillas) what a success!! I came back with a clean plate. So the next 2x I kept the tostadas as a most do. I added, as some suggested here, more garlic, 2 baggies of Goya seasoning, 3 bay leaves, capers, oh and salt. Leftovers? I had leftos the last time and decided to make sliders, just added bbq sauce and nobody noticed it was the same meat as the night before!! money saver! Thanks for the recipe!!
