Spicy Shredded Beef

Super easy to make! I only cook for 1 so keep in mind this recipe does take 2 hours if you want the beef tender and shreddable. It wasn’t spicy, and I added red pepper flakes and it still lacked spicy-ness ... but I did add hot sauce to my taco. I also diced up a little bit of onion, doubled the cumin and eyeballed the rest. DELICIOUSNESS ! I think a can of Rotel instead of diced tomatoes would work well in this recipe too.

I feel like this recipe was lacking flavor so I added a packet of taco seasoning and some red peppers. Which made it alot better. The meat was very tender as I did it in the crockpot. Also alot healthier than ground beef but the old man didnt care for this. Luckly I had alot of topping to enhance the flavors.

Sooooo good! I didn't think it was going to turn out spicy as written so I used two 10 oz cans of Rotel with chilies and 2 more cloves of garlic. No water was needed. I used lean stew meat to cut down on prep and it fell apart in the pan and didn't need shredding. Fantastic for shredded beef tacos!

Excellent! I doubled the cumin and used diced tomatoes with green chilies. I browned the meat, added the spices, then dumped everything in my slow cooker. Cooked on low for 4 hours and the meat was cooked perfectly. I took the cover off for a little while after that and let the liquid evaporate. Loved it, thank you! :)

I loved this shredded beef! I could tell it wasn't going to be that spicy, so I added powdered cayenne pepper and chili powder along with the cumin. I used 4 garlic cloves instead of one, and I used diced tomatoes with green chiles. I only needed an hour and a half for the meat to become so tender that I almost didn't even need to shred it with forks. I served this on corn tortillas with all of the taco fixings. I love that this recipe only used a pound of meat, rather than the 3 or 4 pound roasts others use (with only two people eating, it makes it hard to finish what one of those recipes yields). This is so much better than ground beef!
