Step-by-Step Instructions for Easy Chuck Roast Tacos
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a splash of olive oil. Season the chuck roast generously with salt and black pepper, then sear each side for 4-5 minutes until browned and caramelized.
- Transfer the seared chuck roast to a slow cooker. In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and minced garlic, sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Pour in the beef broth and add this to the slow cooker.
- Sprinkle chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper over the meat. Stir gently to coat the roast evenly.
- Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 7-8 hours or high for 4-5 hours until tender.
- Once finished, remove the chuck roast and shred the meat. Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker to soak in the juices.
- Squeeze fresh lime juice over the shredded beef and stir. Let sit for a few minutes.
- Warm the tortillas according to package instructions.
- Assemble your tacos with the shredded beef and your favorite garnishes.
