With a little more broth and cooked in a crock pot the broth made a great gravy to put over the shells. I don't have to go to the restaurant any more Thank you

These were so good, the meat was super tender and so easy to shred. I made them for my friend when she came to visit and she was really impressed. I added a few cloves of garlic and one onion to mine, it was great!

This was Terrific! Even better beef recipe than the restaurant I go to here in Palm Beach County, FL. I used the first six ingredients to make the beef of this, and combined it with Casey's (from 'Top Chef') Quesadilla recipe to make some sensational Burrito's! I put 3 type's of cheese on them and baked them a few min's at the last for it to melt. Her recipe has a tomatillo salsa that was out of this world, and with this beef, it was definitely 5 stars! Thanks!

Great! Everyone one loved this recipe. I did salt and pepper the roast as it cooked. I also added garlic and extra chili powder and cumin to our taste. I loved the crispness of these.

My family absolutely loves these. I've made them several times. I take a roast and cook it all day long with green peppers and the spices recommended. I am so thrilled to have found this recipe and method. It can be used for so many other types of meats and spices! Thank you!

This was great after a few modifications...After reading other reviews, I added some garlic, Southwest Seasoning and Chipotle flavord Tabasco to the meat while cooking. I just used about a pound of some cheap chuck steaks I found one sale. I cooked it overnight, 12 hrs +. It turned out GREAT! While assembeling, I added finely diced onions, MORE SW seasoning, and MORE Chipotle Tabasco (it's AWESOME if you haven't tried it!) and added the cheese inside as well. I cooked it til brown & crispy and then added some more shredded cheese (including Cheddar) to the top and let it melt. I DRIZZLED some of the sauce from the meat over the top and served it atop a little salsa with the shredded lettuce and tomatoes on the top. It looked so pretty! Like restaurant food! They seemed just a WEE bit dry, so I might add some sauce from the meat to the meat mixture inside. I wasn't cooking them right away and was afraid they would become soggy if I did that initially. I also served it with guacamole along with the Sour Cream. They were great!! Something a little different and will make again!! Thank you :)

My family liked this, but I think it could use a little more flavor. I added some salt and cayanne to the beef while it was cooking, which helped. Next time, I think I'll add a diced onion and some garlic when I add the beef broth. And I'll de-fat the broth with a strainer before mixing the beef back into it, because it was a little on the greasy side. Overall though, a great recipe!

Awesome!! I scaled it down for 2. I made this in the pressure cooker. I lightly browned the meat, then added all the rest of the ingredients, except the cheese, and pressure cooked for 15 min. I turned off the burner, but left the pot on it and let the pressure drop on its own, about 20 min. I removed the lid and transferred the meat to a dish with a slotted spoon and shredded it with two forks. I then returned it to the the pot added a small can of green chilies and cooked the juice down, but was careful not to dry the meat. I used large flour tortillas and even with scaling the recipe to 2 servings it still made 4 chimichangas. I put the cheese on top of the meat before folding. There was plenty of filling. I pan fried them in just enough oil to cover bottom of pan. I served them topped with mexican shredded cheese, salsa, and sour cream. I didn't have any guacamole or would have used that too. They tasted just like the ones I have eaten at Mexican restaurants. I Will definitely make these again.

WOW! This was so good my family fought over who got to take the leftovers for lunch tomorrow. I took the easy road and dumped all of the ingredients into the crockpot, crocking it on low all day. I didn't melt the butter for the tortillas--instead I spread it on there and let it melt in the oven. I put cheese inside the chimichanga instead of the outside, and it worked out great. I will be making this again soon!

Wow these were great! I used a leftover post roast and just shredded the meat and let it simmer in the sauce until most of the juice was absorbed. I then panfried in a little oil. Declicious! My one year old and husband both gobbled them down.

This is a wonderful recipe, and it's so easy to make. I did make a few modifications however. I put the beef chuck and the wet ingredients (including spices) in a crock pot, so I wouldn't have to mess with it. The meat came out so tender when cooked on low for about 8-9 hours. I also used sharp cheese with Jalapenos in it. That really added to the flavor. Instead of putting the cheese on top, I put it inside, and it melted nicely. Finally I chopped lettuce and tomatoes and spread them on top of the chimichangas. Delicious! We have left over meat, so I'm going to turn that into burritos for tomorrow's dinner. This recipe makes HUGE portions. Enjoy!
