Slow Cooker Barbacoa Beef

Step 1

Prepare all of your ingredients first. Cut the meat (brown it in a little oil if you wish), dice the onion, mince the garlic, measure the spices and liquids, etc.

Step 2

Add the meat to the slow cooker and sprinkle the spices over it. Mix it well.

Step 3

Add the remaining ingredients and stir.

Step 4

Cook on Low for 8 hours or High for 4 hours, until meat is very tender. When done cooking, use a large spoon to skim off some of the fat before removing the meat.

Step 5

Then use tongs to remove the meat to a bowl, and use two forks to shred it.

Step 6

Place the shredded meat back into the crock and stir it well. Taste and adjust salt if needed.

Step 7

Serve with warm tortillas and rice, chopped onion, cilantro, avocado, sour cream, or whatever you like!
