Chuck roast, crock pot & mexican style

(1/2) > >>

jpcher:
I've done chuck roast in the crock pot for Italian beef's before, where I cover the beef with water/broth & spices and the meat turns out tender, juicy and fork-shredable. It's usually about 8 hours on high.

I'd like to do a chuck roast mexican style (for burritos or tacos) but I don't think I'd need as much water, or is any liquid needed? 

Anyone have a great recipe to share for a chuck roast in the crock pot mexican style?


Thanks in advance! ;D

Yes you still need liquid.  I have never tried, but I bet a bit of beef or chicken stock and a jar of salsa or a few cans of rotel would be tasty.

I use a about 1 cup of water and 1/4 cup of Old El Paso Taco seasoning mix in the shaker can for each 2 lbs of roast. That stuff has chili powder and salt as the first 2 ingredients, so I think 1/2 of what the recipe on the can calls for is good.

I shred it while it is still cooking and let it sit for a bit. Drain but keep the broth to use to moisten.

Oh! My! I'm off to the store.................

It's similar to the barbacoa from Chipotle

That looks utterly amazing.
How long do you freeze it?
