Notes

Consider adding garlic cloves and a quartered onion to the roasting pan for added flavor. For a healthier alternative, you can use chicken or jackfruit as substitutes for the beef. Store leftover roast in an airtight container for up to 4 days in the refrigerator, or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat with broth to keep it moist. Adjust the chipotle to your taste for spice, and serve with sour cream or yogurt to balance the flavors. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime for a vibrant touch!
