In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the cubed chuck roast and brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef and set aside.
In the same pot, add the chopped onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
While the onion and garlic are cooking, soak the dried chili peppers in hot water for about 20 minutes until they are soft. Drain and chop them finely.
Return the browned beef to the pot and add the chopped chili peppers, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Add the beef broth and tomato paste to the mixture. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the beef is tender and the flavors are well blended.
