Instructions

Creating these mouthwatering Crockpot Chipotle Pot Roast Tacos is simple! Follow these steps to achieve incredible results:

1. Prep the Roast: Trim any excess fat from the beef chuck roast and season it with salt and black pepper.
2. Sear the Meat (Optional): In a large skillet, heat a little oil over medium-high heat. Sear the roast on all sides until browned for extra flavor. This step is optional but recommended.
3. Combine Ingredients: In the crockpot, add the diced onion, minced garlic, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, lime juice, and broth.
4. Add the Roast: Place the seasoned roast on top of the ingredients in the crockpot. Ensure it is submerged in the liquid as much as possible.
5. Cook: Cover the crockpot and set it to low heat for 8 hours or high heat for 4 hours. The meat should be tender and easily shredable.
6. Shred the Meat: Once cooked, remove the roast from the crockpot and place it on a cutting board. Use two forks to shred the meat into bite-sized pieces.
7. Mix with Juices: Return the shredded meat to the crockpot, mixing it with the juices for added flavor. Allow it to sit for 10 minutes to absorb more of the delicious liquid.
8. Heat the Tortillas: Warm the corn or flour tortillas on a skillet or in the microwave until pliable.
9. Assemble Tacos: Fill each tortilla with the chipotle pot roast, and top with diced avocado, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime if desired.
10. Serve: Arrange the tacos on a platter and serve with lime wedges for everyone to enjoy.

By following these straightforward steps, you create a dish that is as delicious as it is satisfying!
