Mom's Tex-Mex Dish

This Tex-Mex dish is one of my mom’s favorite dishes to serve her kids and grand-kids when they arrive for a visit at grammy’s house. It’s easy to put together! The meat cooks all day in the slow-cooker until it can easily be pulled apart. The best part about this dish is while it’s cooking at any time of the day when you have a spare moment you can cut up your peppers and onions, and set them aside until you are ready to put the whole dish together.

RECIPE FROM THE KITCHEN @ Love to Sew Studio: Judi Montgomery Harris

INGREDIENTS:

1 -2 pound brisket beef
1 bag of tortillas chips
1 cup chopped red pepper
1 cup chopped green pepper
1 large onion chopped
1 cup chopped tomatoes
1 jar of cheese sauce (melted)
1 cup your favorite hickory smoked BBQ sauce
dashes of liquid smoke
salt & pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:

Rub the beef with salt & pepper. Put beef, liquid smoke, and BBQ sauce in a slow cooker and cook on low for 7-8 hours.
Pull apart beef into bite size pieces and place in a bowl. On a large decorative dish or covered cookie sheet, layer the ingredients. The tortillas chips go down first, then the bite size pieces of beef, then the melted cheese, then top with fresh cut veggies.
Put in center of table, and enjoy eating by hand, by scooping up the meat, cheese, and veggies with a tortilla chip.
