1

Season the chuck roast with a garlic rub, salt, and black pepper.

2

Prepare the barbecue pit and set it to a temperature between 250 to 275 degrees Fahrenheit.

3

Place the chuck roast on the top rack of the barbecue pit for about 1.5 to 2 hours.

4

Toast the dried chili peppers in a pan until aromatic, then remove the seeds and place them in a bowl.

5

Add enough water to cover the toasted peppers and let them rehydrate.

6

Blend the rehydrated peppers with cumin, oregano, 12 cloves of garlic, white vinegar, and some of the chili water until smooth.

7

Pass the blended mixture through a fine mesh strainer to create a smooth sauce.

8

Wrap the chuck roast in foil with beef broth and return it to the barbecue pit until it reaches an internal temperature of 200 to 205 degrees Fahrenheit.

9

Prepare the slaw by zesting and juicing a lime, then mixing it with purple cabbage, green onions, diced jalapeno, olive oil, minced garlic, and cilantro.
