32 Reviews of Slow Cooked Shredded Beef Tacos

From: jerri822

This recipe made really delicious taco meat. I followed your directions and it couldn't have been any easier. Wouldn't change anything. Not too spicy with heat, but enough seasoning to not be boring. Survey said--5 stars

    I have never made tacos with shredded beef. Amazing!! I will never use ground beef ever again. This was so easy. The beef was so tender and easy to shred. Had a great spicy flavor but not overdone. My family gave it raves. Thanks Nurse Di.

    This meat is sooooo good! Just amazing! I used lean beef cubes and broke them apart with the back of a spoon after cooking. Very, very tender meat. I served this with the lettuce, tomato and cheese rolled in lavash bread instead of taco shells. I love this recipe! I'll never cook taco meat with mince in the pan again!

    Very tasty! I used a pork butt roast instead, since we were craving pork tacos. I kept to the recipe other than that change. It cooked in 8 hours and shredded easily. Hubby and MIL both loved it as well as my 4-year-old son. Definitely will make again. Thanks!

    Remarkably nutritious! Ok, maybe not, but damn, it's good! I used flank steak, which turned out quite tender and made my own taco shells from corn tortillas. A true keeper, thank you!

    This recipe turned out great. Very nice change compared to ground beef. We crushed up our taco shells and made taco salads. 2 yo dd thought it was a little spicy, but she rarely eats beef. DH and I thought it had great flavor and we'll definately make this again. Thanks NurseDi!

    I made this for a crowd of people who'd been working outside all day and it was a hit! I used a 3 lb. chuck roast, which I cut into about 5 pieces and did everything else pretty much as is written. We had these on both the crispy corn and heated flour taco shells. Along with the suggested toppings, I offered jalapeno slices, sliced avocado and habanero salsa....YUM! Thanks Di!

    We loved this! I make a similar recipe with pork butt and knew from experience that it makes a lot of juice, so I left out the water - just added the chopped onion and sprinkled the beef with the taco seasoning. I also added a finely chopped jalipeno and 2 chopped garlic cloves. I used a 7 blade roast and just cut the bone out - cooked it on low for about 6 hours and it was falling apart. The aroma while it was cooking was wonderful. I left out the taco sauce and green chilis because it was already so tasty without it. My family and a visiting friend all thought it was delicious. Thank you for a great recipe! I'll be making this often!
