Step-by-Step Instructions

Cooking the Barbacoa Meat

1. Prep the Meat:

   Trim excess fat from the chuck roast, then season it generously with salt and pepper on all sides.

2. Prepare the Crock Pot:

   Place the chuck roast in the crock pot and add the following ingredients:

   4 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce

   2 cups beef bone broth

   1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

   Juice from 2 limes

   3 bay leaves

3. Cook the Meat:

   Set the crock pot to high and cook for 5 hours or until the meat is tender and easily shredded with a fork.

4. Shred the Meat:

   Remove the bay leaves and shred the meat using two forks. Mix the shredded meat with the juices in the crock pot for extra flavor.

Assembling the Tacos

   Heat a low-carb tortilla in a skillet or microwave. Optionally, sprinkle shredded cheese on the tortilla and let it melt.

2. Layer the Ingredients:

   Add ~3 oz of barbacoa meat to the tortilla. Top with 1-2 tbsp scrambled eggs and 1-2 tbsp salsa.

3. Serve:

   Serve the tacos warm. Repeat the process for as many tacos as desired.
