This dish was inspired by the Texas chili con carne recipe, which, unlike the Mexican version, uses chunks of meat rather than ground beef and omits beans. Roasted corn is used in the sauce instead. This is a more elegant version, and with the traditional sauce, you get a festive beef roulade. The roulade is made from flank steak. If you have a thick cut, open it like a book (butterfly), and if you have a thin cut, simply pound it with a mallet, fill it with a piquant cilantro cheese filling and corn tortillas, and cook in a slow cooker with chili pepper sauce until the meat is tender and the sauce thickens.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- In a 6-8 quart slow cooker, combine the chicken broth, 2 tablespoons chili powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, tomatoes, and poblano. Tear 1 tortilla into pieces and add to the slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon. chili powder and 0.5 tsp cumin. In another bowl, mix the cheese with 1/4 cup cilantro.
- Open the steak like a bookTo do this, place the steak on a cutting board with the short side facing you, then cut it horizontally in half, holding the knife parallel to the board without cutting all the way through. Open the steak like a book. If your steak is less than 1 cm thick, don't cut it; instead, lightly pound it with the flat side of a meat mallet until it's about 0.5 cm thick. Season with salt, pepper, and sprinkle with a mixture of chili powder and cumin.
- Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the steak, press it down, and place the remaining 2 whole tortillas in the center, overlapping slightly. Roll the steak tightly along the long side. Tie with kitchen twine at 4 cm intervals, then tuck in the ends and tie the roll lengthwise. Place it in the slow cooker and spoon some of the sauce on top. Cover and simmer over low heat until the meat is tender and the sauce is simmering, about 7 hours.
- Transfer the steak roll to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes. Stir the corn into the sauce, cover, and continue cooking over low heat until heated through, about 5 minutes, then stir in the remaining 1/4 cup cilantro. Trim the twine and slice the roll thinly. Serve with the sauce.
