1

preheat the oven to 275

season both sides of the rump roast with salt, pepper, and garlic powder

give everything a stir and add the beef broth

9

when the meat is super tender, transfer the roast to clean baking pan with sides

10

ladle in some of the broth from the dutch oven (especially the onions) and shredded using two forks (you may want to avoid adding in any of the chipotle peppers- they are pretty spicy)

grill the tortillas on a grill or over the open flame on the stovetop for about 1 minute per side until they have dark grill marks (you can also heat in a 400 degree oven about 12-15 mins)
