Ingredients

– 2 pounds beef chuck roast, chicken breast, or pork shoulder
– 1 packet taco seasoning

– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 cup beef or chicken broth

– Corn or flour tortillas
– Toppings: diced avocado, fresh cilantro, shredded cheese, lime wedges, salsa, and sour cream


Instructions

Follow these easy steps to create your Crock Pot Street Tacos:

1. Prepare the Meat: If using a beef chuck roast, cut it into large chunks for even cooking. Trim off excess fat if necessary.
2. Sauté the Aromatics: In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced onion and minced garlic until translucent. This step enhances the flavors.
3. Combine Ingredients: Add your chosen meat to the Crock Pot. Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the top, followed by the sautéed onions and garlic.
4. Add Liquids: Pour in the broth, lime juice, and diced tomatoes. Stir gently to combine.
5. Set the Cooker: Cover the Crock Pot and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours until the meat is tender.
6. Shred the Meat: Once done, use two forks to shred the meat right in the Crock Pot. Stir the meat back into the juices for added flavor.
7. Warm the Tortillas: Shortly before serving, warm the corn or flour tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side.
8. Assemble Tacos: Load shredded meat onto the tortillas and top with your choice of toppings.
9. Serve and Enjoy: Plate the tacos and serve them warm with extra lime wedges on the side.
