3. Remove the chiles from the sack and gently rub the skin off each chile. Remove stems and seeds, then dice. Note: You may want to wear gloves to protect your hands from the capsaicin in the chilis that causes the burning sensation on your skin.

 

 

 
4. Remove husks from the tomatillos, rinse, and cut them into cubes.

 

 
5. Cube chuck roast, removing any excess fat and gristle. Heat vegetable oil in a large heavy pot and add the cubed meat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then brown meat over medium-low heat. Then remove meat and put into slow cooker.

6. Add onions to the pot and cook them on medium-low heat until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds. Add 1 cup chicken broth, to deglaze the pot.

 

 
7. Put onions, garlic, and chicken broth into the slow cooker. Then add remaining chicken broth, chiles, tomatillos, 1/2 cup chopped cilantro, cumin, oregano, and allspice.

 

 

 
8. Cover and cook on HIGH for 4 hours or LOW for 6 hours.

10. Continue cooking, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Stir in lime juice and serve hot with sour cream, tortillas, and chips. Enjoy!
