Shredded Beef. Slice 2 lbs flank steak into thirds. Rinse off. Place beef in large pot of simmering water. Season with 1 head of garlic, half of a large white onion and salt, to taste. The beef takes about 2 hours to become tender and easy to shred. It's much easier to shred the meat while it's still warm. Lightly re-season beef with salt and pepper and cover with plastic wrap until ready to use. You can mix in a little of the caldillo just to flavor and moisten the beef before preparing tacos!
