Slow Cooker Shredded Beef (Perfect for Tacos or Enchiladas!)
This is a delicious way to make beef for tacos (soft or crunchy) or even enchiladas! If I am lucky enough to have leftovers, I usually make quesadillas for lunch the next day!

Ingredients
10 servings
Instructions
- Rub the beef with cumin and chili powder. Brown on all sides in a medium-hot non-stick pan.
- Place the onions, jalapeño and garlic into the slow cooker. Add the roast. Pour enchilada sauce over top.
- Cook on low 8-10 hours. Remove the beef to a large platter. Using 2 forks, shred the beef disposing of any fat.
- Skim any fat off the remaining liquid. Remove the onions and peppers and all except approx. 1 cup from the slow cooker. Add the shredded beef to the sauce in the slow cooker and stir. Add the reserved liquid until you reach the desired consistency.
- Serve in tacos or use in enchiladas. You can serve the onions/peppers on the side if desired
