Hi r/charlotte! I recently returned from a study abroad experience in South America, and I've really been craving some Venezuelan Pabellón (essentially a shredded beef, beans, and rice dish for those of you who aren't familiar). It is a long shot, but does anyone know where I could find this dish in the QC? Thanks!
It is a simple dish of shredded beef and black beans served on a bed of white rice.
It almost always is accompanied by a fried egg (Pabellón a Caballo) or with fried
plantain slices (Pabellón con Barandas) The meat is sometimes replaced by fish
during lent. It is the Venezuelan national dish.
Ingredients
- 1 2-pound piece flank steak
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup Olive Oil
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 jalapeno, minced
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Directions
-
Cut flank steak into 6 equal pieces.
-
Grind and mix garlic, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, paprika and 1/2 the jalapeño
using a mortar and pestle until a paste forms. Rub paste all over flank steak,
transfer to resealable plastic bag and refrigerate for 1 hour up to overnight. -
In the bottom of a large pot over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil
and half the chopped onion and green pepper. -
Once onion is translucent, add flank steak and caramelize both sides.
-
Once flank steak has a crust on both sides, add 8 cups of water, cover and
boil for 3 to 4 hours until meat is tender and falling apart. -
Remove steak from water and, when cool enough to handle, shred with your
hands, removing any extra fat and veins if desired. Reserve and refrigerate stock
for soup or other recipes. -
In a sauté pan over medium-high heat add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive
oil and remaining onion, green pepper and jalapeño. Sauté until onion is
translucent. -
Add shredded beef and cook until crisp. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Plate each dish with a healthy portion of carne mechada, 1/2 cup of rice, 1/2
cup black beans and a few tajadas.

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
They’re on standbi
It really does, I swear!
Pilot on me!!
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

Me grabbing a soda from my (what I thought was) half full 12pk...
Notices there's only 2;
Me: "Awe man... This is a damn bird box!" Her: "What the hell does that mean?!" Me: (Pulls both cans out & shows them to her) "It's only got Toucans."
I'm not ashamed to admit the look on her face was glorious.
I was just sitting there doing nothing.
