Shredded Beef Nachos!

We did this for Superbowl Sunday, figuring that Nachos seemed like a perfect choice for dinner on such a day.  But I had also just bought a bunch of beef, and I got the 'Chip Pack' extra from Bountiful Baskets the day before.  They turned out even better then I thought they would, and I thought they would turn out amazing.  The beef I was afraid would be dry and tastless - but it was so juicy and full of flavor.  Yummy!!!

Shredded Beef  (adapted from a recipe I found on allrecipes.com)

2 to 3 lb Beef Roast

1/4 c. Water
1 Can Beef Broth
3 Tbls. Red Wine Vinegar
1 1/2 Tbls. Chili Powder
1 Tbls. Ground Cumin

Put the roast and the water into a saucepan over medium-high heat, cover.  Cook until water is gone and then brown beef on all sides.  Add the rest of the ingredients, reduce heat to low, cover and cook for another 2 hours.  Take out of pan and shred, and then add about 1/2 to 3/4 of the juices, that were left in the pan. Then make sure to taste it, because it's wonderful.

Nachos

Chips

Shredded Beef

Cheese (We used a combination of Medium Cheddar and Colby Jack)
Olives (if you like them, we only put them on half)
Refried Beans
Salsa

Two of us in our family don't like refried beans, or salsa, and the other two don't like olives, so we do a half and half nacho.  Layer the Refried beans on the bottom, then chips (in the picture I'm using the freshly fried Chips that I got from Bountiful Baskets, they came in yellow, green, and black, and were really good.)  Then Olives, Beef, Salsa, (or whatever you like) and finish with the cheese.  Bake in the oven until Cheese melts.
