Tips:

  • Use a crock pot or slow cooker with a capacity of at least 6 quarts.
  • Choose a chuck roast or rump roast for the best results. These cuts of beef are tough, but they become tender and flavorful when cooked slowly.
  • Brown the beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat before adding it to the crock pot. This will help to develop flavor and prevent the beef from becoming dry.
  • Add plenty of liquid to the crock pot, such as beef broth, water, or salsa. This will help to keep the beef moist and prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the crock pot.
  • Season the beef with your favorite taco seasoning. You can use a store-bought seasoning mix or make your own. Some common ingredients in taco seasoning include chili powder, cumin, oregano, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Cook the beef on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-6 hours, or until the beef is fall-apart tender.
  • Once the beef is cooked, shred it with two forks. You can then serve the shredded beef tacos with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.
