Instructions
Preheat broiler and position rack close to the heat source.
Line a broiling pan with aluminum foil and place poblano peppers on top.
Broil peppers until skin is blackened, 10 to 15 minutes, turning with tongs.
Place peppers in a plastic bag and seal loosely for 30 minutes.
Remove skin, seeds, and stems from peppers, coarsely chop and set aside.
Repeat roasting and prepping process with hatch chili peppers.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour and salt and pepper.
Toss beef cubes in flour mixture to coat.
Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat until just smoking.
Brown beef in batches, then remove to a plate.
Add onion, garlic, and jalapeño to pot, season with salt and pepper.
Cook over medium-high heat, scraping pot to dislodge browned bits.
If needed, add extra oil, and cook until onion is soft, 5 to 7 minutes.
Add cumin, coriander, and oregano, cook for 2 minutes.
Stir in tomato paste and beer, cook until liquid reduces by two-thirds.
Add stock and return beef to pot, with reserved chili peppers.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat, simmer, covered for 2 1/2 hours until beef is tender.
Serve in bowls with chopped cilantro, corn chips or tortillas, and lime wedges.
