An easy and versatile Paleo AIP Slow Cooker Shredded Beef that can be served in so many ways! Autoimmune Protocol & Whole30 compliant.
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 8 hours
Servings 4
Ingredients
- Olive oil or coconut oil
- 2½ lbs. beef chuck roast
- Sea salt to taste
- 1 medium yellow onion diced
- 1½ t. ground cumin (for AIP, sub turmeric)
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp smoked paprika (for AIP, omit or sub ground smoked tea)
- 1 tsp ginger powder
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 ½ cups bone broth or water
- 1 Tbsp red wine vinegar
To serve (optional):
- 1/3 c. fresh cilantro chopped
- 2 large limes cut into 8 wedges each
Instructions
-
Grease the bottom and sides of 6-quart slow-cooker crock with oil.
-
Generously season the beef with salt on all sides and place in slow cooker crock. Add all remaining ingredients, cover, and cook on low for 8 hours.
-
When done cooking, remove lid and shred beef with two forks or a meat chopper while still inside the slow cooker. Allow shredded beef to marinate in warm cooking juices for 5 minutes to absorb more flavor.
-
Transfer shredded beef from slow cooker to a serving platter with tongs or a slotted spoon, allowing excess liquid to drain into the pot (save the liquid for soups and stews - it’s delicious!).
-
Optional: top with chopped cilantro and serve immediately with fresh lime wedges and additional cooking juices on the side, if desired. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
For best slow cooker results, allow meat to cook on low for at least 8 hours.
You can also cook this on high pressure in an Instant Pot or pressure cooker for 75 minutes.
