Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a large pot, combine beer, onion, cumin, salt, cayenne pepper and green pepper. Add the water, and bring to a boil. Add the meat, lower heat, cover and braise the meat until it is very soft and tender - about 1½ to 2 hours, depending on thickness.

  2. Step 2

    Drain the meat well, and grill it over a charcoal fire or under a broiler just to heat it and impart a crispy texture. Serve with aji pique on the side.

Excellent dish. The only change I made was to brown the meat in a bit of fat before adding the liquid and vegetables. Otherwise, no changes. Grilling the meat at the end (under broiler) seemed to dry it out so I may skip this step next time. Used the Aji and Aji Pique sauces with it and they were a hit as well.
