Ingredients
  • Non-stick cooking spray
  • 2 1/2  lbs. beef chuck roast
  • 1/2 medium onion diced
  • 1 medium jalapeno thinly sliced
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon chipotle powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
  • 1 10 oz. can tomatoes with green chilies
  • 1 cup beef stock
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon Sea salt and black pepper to taste
To serve:
  • 1/3 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 2 large limes cut into 8 wedges each
Instructions
  1. Spray the bottom and sides of 6-quart slow-cooker crock with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. Generously season the beef with salt and pepper on all sides and place in slow cooker crock. Add all remaining ingredients, cover, and cook on low for 8 hours.
  3. When done cooking, remove lid and shred beef with two forks while still inside the slow cooker. Allow shredded beef to marinate in warm cooking juices for 5 minutes to absorb more flavor.
  4. Transfer shredded beef from slow cooker to a serving platter with tongs, allowing excess liquid to drain. Top with chopped cilantro and serve immediately with fresh lime wedges and additional cooking juices on the side, if desired. Enjoy!
