• Blend until completely smooth, add 1 1/2 cup water stirring to combine.
• Marinate meat in adobo:.
• Place meat in a large non-reactive container, with enough room for the adobo sauce.
• Pour sauce over, turning roast to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 10 to 12 hours (overnight) for the most intense flavor; meat can be marinated for up to 2 days. Remove roast from marinade, pat dry with paper towels. Cut beef into 3 equal portions.

• In a large Dutch oven, combine beef with adobo marinade and bay leaves. Cover and cook until beef is tender and can be pulled apart with a fork, 6 to 7 hours.
• Using a large slotted spoon or tongs remove beef to a large bowl. (reserve cooking liquid, discard bay leaves and whole chilis) Allow beef to rest, covered for 30 minutes, Shred beef using two forks or tongs, discarding excess fat. Taste adobo cooking liquid. (if it is too spicy or too salty, thin it out with hot water) moisten meat with 1 cup adobo cooking liquid, reserving the rest for later use.
• Make Rice:.
• In medium pot (about 2 to 3 quarts) combine water, rice, salt, and bay leaf. Boil, uncovered until steam holes appear in rice, and grains on surface appear dry, about 8 minutes.

ZESTY CHIPOTLE LIME CREMA

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in a bowl with an immersion blender or in a regular blender. Make sure all ingredients have fully blended, no lumps. Serve or chill for later - will thicken slightly.
• Notes:.
• This is a recipe that really flexes to personal taste.
• Add a little zest unless you like a lot - then add more.
• Start with juice from half the lime , one garlic and one chipotle, ziz it up, then add what you like more of - I like 1 chipotle, 2 garlic and juice from the whole lime and zest from half a lime, but lime sizes vary greatly and so does how much juice you get. You want a tangy, garlicky crema with some pow from the chipotle.
