a slow yum

[lagilman]

Another easy recipe from the kitchen of the Improvisational Chef...




2/3 cup olive oil
2/3 cup white wine vinegar
two pinches sugar
two shakes of white pepper
several pods of star anise
a pinch or three of chipolte

2# chuck roast


crush pepper, star anise, and chipolte together, blend with oil and vinegar. whisk in sugar. Pour marinade into plastic bag, add roast. Massage marinade into meat, let sit 12-24 hours in fridge. Bring out and let come to room temperature. Broil on rack at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes. Let sit under tented foil until cool enough to cut.

Mmmmmmmmmm...... (pretty good the next day as a cold sandwich, too)

Sounds delightful!

Where does one purchase chipotle?

Kada.

Depends. Chipotle is 'just' smoked jalepeno peper, so if you have a halfway decent Southwestern section of your market, you should be set. If all else fails, McCormick spices does a pretty good packaged version. Or you can go full-throttle to the decadent side of the force and visit the Spice House....
