Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325°F. Season your chuck roast generously on both sides with salt, pepper, and taco seasoning. Add to a Dutch Oven or baking dish, and cover with either the dish lid or a piece of aluminum foil. Bake for 1 hour per pound of meat, so a 4 lb roast will bake for 4 hours.
Step 2
Remove the roast from the oven and shred it into large chunks using two forks. If the roast is not pulling apart easily, put it back in the oven for 30 minutes.
Step 3
Raise the oven heat to 425°F.
Step 4
Toss the shredded pieces of roast around in the rendered fat and place it back in the oven, uncovered, for 20-25 minutes or until you see some nice crispy ends. This is the good part!
Step 5
While the roast is finishing, make your guacamole. Mash your avocado and combine with lime juice, orange juice (if using), salt, and pepper. Taste and add more lime and salt if needed. Stir in your chopped red onion and cilantro.
Step 6
Heat your tortillas.
Step 7
Assemble your tacos by adding a layer of guacamole, chuck roast, and your toppings of choice such as white onion, cilantro, and salsa macha.
Step 8
Serve and ENJOY!!
