    Slow Cooker Barbacoa Beef


    Prep Time: 10 mins

    Cook Time: 8 hrs

    Total Time: 8 hrs 10 mins

    Servings: 8 servings

     

    Ingredients

    2 Tbsp vegetable oil

    4 pounds beef chuck roast, cut into large cubes

    1 onion, diced

    5 garlic cloves, minced

    3-4 chipotle chilis in adobo sauce, finely diced

    1 tablespoon ground cumin

    1/2 tablespoon dried oregano

    2 teaspoons salt

    1 teaspoon black pepper

    3/4 cup beef stock

    2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

    1/4 cup fresh lime juice

    1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

    3 bay leaves

    2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, for garnish


    Directions

       In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the vegetable oil and sear the beef on both sides. Remove and place in slow cooker.

       Add the rest of the ingredients, except the bay leaves, to the slow cooker. Toss gently to combine. Then add the bay leaves, and cover. Cook on low for 8-9 hours, or on high for 4-5 hours. Cooked beef should be tender and should fall apart easily when shredded with a fork. If it doesn't shred easily, cook for a little longer.

       Remove beef from slow cooker and place on a cutting board. Using two forks, shred the beef into bite size pieces. Transfer shredded beef back into the slow cooker. Toss the beef with the juices, then cover and let the beef soak up the juices. Remove the bay leaves. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve.

    Enjoy!
