Hashing It Out

Hash is a perfect food for any time of the day. Replace potatoes with sweet potatoes, add some chipotle and beef, and you've got a meal fit for an (urban) cowboy. Serve in tortillas with cheese, salsa, cilantro and avocado. Add an egg for drama.
 
Sweet Potato Chipotle Beef Hash
2 pounds chuck, cubed
1/3 cup dry rub (chipotle chili powder, cumin, garlic, Mexican oregano, brown sugar)
Vegetable oil for frying
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1/2 red onion, chopped
3 chili peppers, diced
1 clove garlic, minced

Toss meat in dry rub; in batches sear cubes on all sides in vegetable oil over medium high heat. Place cubes in roasting pan, add about 1/3 cup water, cover tightly and cook in preheated 300 degree oven until tender, about 2 1/2 hours. Shred and set aside.

Saute vegetables over medium high heat in vegetable oil until tender and beginning to caramelize; add garlic during final few minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Toss beef into mixture.
