Tips:

  • To ensure tender and flavorful shredded beef, choose a chuck roast or brisket with good marbling.
  • Season the beef generously with a rub of your choice before searing. This will help develop a flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
  • Sear the beef in a hot skillet or grill to brown all sides. This will add flavor and prevent the beef from drying out in the slow cooker.
  • Use a combination of beef broth and water to create a flavorful cooking liquid. You can also add other liquids such as beer, wine, or tomato juice for additional flavor.
  • Add aromatics such as onions, garlic, carrots, and celery to the slow cooker along with the beef. These vegetables will add flavor and depth to the shredded beef.
  • Cook the shredded 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, remove it from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before shredding. This will help the beef retain its juices.
  • Serve the shredded beef on its own, or use it in tacos, burritos, sandwiches, or other dishes.

Conclusion:

Mijo's Slow Cooker Shredded Beef is an easy and delicious recipe that is perfect for busy weeknights. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a tender and flavorful shredded beef that can be used in a variety of dishes.
