Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time8 hours
Servings - 4 servings

Ingredients 

  • 2 lbs. beef chuck roast
  • 2 Tbsp lime juice divided
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp salt and pepper, each
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 15 oz. can pineapple in 100% juice
  • 2 small green bell peppers seeded and diced
  • 2 Tbsp cilantro chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Tortillas - flour or corn
  • corn on the cob, rice, or refried beans side dishes

Instructions

  • Place the beef roast in the slow cooker. Squeeze the lime juice over the top, then sprinkle with cumin, salt and pepper on top as well. Carefully pour the water around the beef roast. (I like to add water so that the environment inside the slow cooker stays nice and moist. I think it makes for more tender beef!) Set on low and cook for 8 hours. Once cooked, shred it with 2 forks.
  • Before dinner, mix up the pineapple pieces, chopped peppers, lime juice, cilantro and salt and pepper together in a bowl.
  • Add the slow cooked beef into the tortillas and top with the pineapple-pepper salsa.
  • Prepare side dishes.
  • Serve Shredded Beef Tacos with Pineapple-Pepper Salsa & preferred side dishes.
