beef taco meat

Slow Cooker Beef Barbacoa is cooked low and slow all day to get the perfect Mexican flavor and tenderness. It’s rich and perfect on tacos with lime wedges!

Slow Cooker Beef Barbacoa

yellow onion, (diced)

garlic, (minced)

(4-ounces) green chilies

chipotles in adobo, (diced)

cumin

oregano

salt

black pepper

apple cider vinegar

limes

bay leaves

cilantro

In the bowl of your slow cooker combine prepped chuck roast, onions, garlic, green chilies, chipotles, ground cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper.

In a small bowl whisk together beef broth, vinegar, and lime juice; pour broth mixture over ingredients in slow cooker.

Add bay leaves.

Cover and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours, or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours. Cooked beef should be tender and should fall apart easily when shredded with a fork.

Remove beef from slow cooker and transfer to a cutting board.

Using two forks, or shredder claws, shred the beef into bite size pieces.

Transfer shredded beef back into the slow cooker; stir everything together until completely incorporated.

Garnish with cilantro or parsley and serve.

Remember the Enchiritos at Taco Bell back in the day? Soft flour tortillas wrapped around taco seasoned ground beef and refried beans, topped with a flavorful red enchilada sauce and melty cheese? It’s been a while since you could “make a run for the border” and order and Enchirito, but that’s okay – making them at home is so much better anyway. Especially with these great tips and tricks!
