Weight Watcher Slow Cooker Chipotles Barbacoa Beef Food

CHIPOTLE BEEF BARBACOA RECIPE (THE BEST!)

Steps:

• Combine the broth, chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, garlic, apple cider vinegar, lime juice, dried oregano, cumin, sea salt, black pepper, and ground cloves in a blender (everything except the beef and bay leaves). Puree until smooth.
• Place the beef chunks in the slow cooker. Pour the pureed mixture from the blender on top. Add the (whole) bay leaves.
• Cook for 4-6 hours on high or 8-10 hours on low, until the beef is fall-apart tender.
• Remove the bay leaves. Shred the meat using two forks and stir into the juices. Cover and rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the beef to absorb even more flavor. Use a slotted spoon to serve.
