Beef Marinade

Method

Beef Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Beef

    In a large bowl, combine the soy sauce, red wine vinegar, cumin, minced garlic, black pepper, and salt. Mix well. Add the beef chuck roast and ensure it is fully coated in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.

Cooking the Beef

  1. 2

    Sear the Beef

    Remove the marinated beef from the refrigerator. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Sear the beef on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side.

  2. 3

    Add Vegetables

    Once the beef is browned, remove it from the pot and set aside. In the same pot, add chopped onion, sliced carrots, sliced red bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until the vegetables start to soften.

  3. 4

    Braise the Beef

    Return the beef to the pot and add enough water or beef broth to cover the meat halfway. Bring to a simmer, then cover and reduce heat to low. Let it braise for about 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the beef is tender and easily shredded.

Bowl Assembly

  1. 5

    Assemble the Glow Bowl

    Once the beef is cooked, remove it from the pot and shred it with two forks. In serving bowls, place a base of cooked quinoa, top with shredded beef, sautéed vegetables, sliced avocado, and chopped cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the bowl.
