I finally got around to making this, and I have to say this is by far the closest I've come to imitating the original recipe - thank you so, so, so much!!! I didn't know where to incorporate the chiles de arbol so I just added them with the NM chiles and let them cook and soak together. Sadly, I did slightly burn my chiles so the final flavor came a bit smokier than the original. It is also not as bright red but it is so dang close! I will definitely need to try again and change small things around - the tomatillos are the hardest part because they go bad so quickly and I need so many, but at least I have a wonderful start! ^_^

Then wait a bit and like 5-10 minutes and or coat it 15 minutes before you’re done with the recipe and settle it in the jar. Sometimes it makes it last longer. Also it decontaminates the jar too

You do realize that when you make these recipes, you end up with about 8-12 servings. So, this is basically Chipotle meal prep for a week. I made barbacoa bowls on Saturday. I made the beef, the cilantro lime rice, the medium tomatillo salsa, and the mild salsa (pico). The beef is good for 8-12 servings. So are the salsas (probably more). The rice is good for about 6 servings. My first attempt took me about two hours. I think I can get this down to 60-90 minutes. For one week of food, this is damn magical.

a couple of thoughts: Instead of New Mexico chile's you can try guajillos. Guajillos are a touch spicier but more bright red when blended. Just de seed all of them and use the arbol's to moderate the heat. The more arbols you can sneak in, the more the color will improve. Alternatively, you can use one or two kashmir chiles. they are BRIGHT red (Think Tika Masala) and not too hot when seeded. In any case, those are just color improvements. If it tastes good, who cares? lol! Also, roasted tomatillos take on a nice sweetness where boiled tomatillos are very tangy, like the salsa. Who says you can't improve on the flavor?
