Print Recipe

A flavor-packed, comforting dish perfect for busy days and family gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2–3 pounds beef (like chuck roast)
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 can diced tomatoes (14.5 oz)
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Start by seasoning your beef with salt and pepper. Rub it all over, making sure to give it some love.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, throw in a splash of olive oil, followed by the chopped onion and bell pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they’re soft and aromatic.
  3. Toss in the minced garlic for the last minute of sautéing.
  4. Now, let’s put everything into the slow cooker! Start with the sautéed veggies at the bottom, then lay the beef on top.
  5. Add the can of diced tomatoes and beef broth right into the slow cooker and dust the chili powder, cumin, and oregano over the top.
  6. Pop the lid on your slow cooker and set it to low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours.
  7. Once cooked, use two forks to shred the beef directly in the pot and mix it well with the juices.

Notes

This shredded beef is versatile! Serve it with tacos, burrito bowls, nachos, or sandwiches for a delicious meal.
