Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Cut the flank steak into large pieces and place them in a large bowl. In a small bowl, mix the adobo seasoning and Worcestershire sauce until a paste forms. Rub the paste into the meat, add the beer, and marinate for 15 minutes in the refrigerator.

    Transfer the meat and marinade to a large saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer until the meat is tender, about 3 hours.
  2. Remove the meat from the pan and reserve the liquid. Use two forks to shred the meat.

    Heat oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, pepper, green onions, and tomatoes and cook until soft, 10 minutes. Add the tomato paste and meat, then pour in 2 cups of the reserved cooking liquid. Cover and simmer until the juices have evaporated, about 15 minutes.

    Delicious Adobo Seasoning: Mix all dry spices with annatto coloring pigment.
