Crock Pot Barbacoa

Uncategorized

Ingredients:

  • 3 lb Beef brisket or chuck roast (trimmed and cut into 2 inch chunks)
  • 1/2 cup Beef broth (or chicken broth)
  • 2 medium Chipotle chiles in adobo (including the sauce, about 4 tsp)
  • 5 cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 2 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp Lime juice
  • 1 tbsp Dried oregano
  • 2 tsp Cumin
  • 2 tsp Sea salt
  • 1 tsp Black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Ground cloves (optional)
  • 2 whole Bay leaf

Instructions:

  1. Combine the broth, chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, garlic, apple cider vinegar, lime juice, dried oregano, cumin, sea salt, black pepper, and ground cloves in a blender (everything except the beef and bay leaves). Puree until smooth.
  2. Place the beef chunks in the slow cooker. Pour the pureed mixture from the blender on top. Add the (whole) bay leaves.
  3. Cook for 4-6 hours on high or 8-10 hours on low, until the beef is fall-apart tender.
  4. Remove the bay leaves. Shred the meat using two forks and stir into the juices. Cover and rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the beef to absorb even more flavor. Use a slotted spoon to serve.
