Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 lbs beef chuck roast
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1 tbsp ground cumin
- 1 tbsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp ground cloves
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups cooked white rice
- 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup corn kernels
- 1 cup pico de gallo
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 4 ripe avocados
- 1/4 cup diced red onion
- 1 jalapeno, seeded and diced
- 1/4 cup diced tomato
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- In a blender, combine 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 3 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, 4 cloves minced garlic, juice of 1 lime, 1 tbsp ground cumin, 1 tbsp dried oregano, 1 tsp ground cloves, and 1/2 cup beef broth. Blend until smooth.
- Season the beef chuck roast with salt and pepper, then place it in a slow cooker. Pour the blended mixture over the beef, ensuring it is well coated. Cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours, until the beef is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
- While the beef is cooking, prepare the guacamole. In a bowl, mash 4 ripe avocados with 1/4 cup diced red onion, 1 diced jalapeno, 1/4 cup diced tomato, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, and 1/4 cup lime juice. Season with salt to taste.
- Once the beef is done, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker and mix it with the cooking juices.
- To assemble the burrito bowls, divide 2 cups of cooked white rice among 4 bowls. Top each with a portion of the barbacoa beef, black beans, corn, pico de gallo, shredded lettuce, shredded cheese, and a dollop of sour cream. Add a generous scoop of guacamole on top of each bowl.
- Serve the barbacoa burrito bowls immediately and enjoy!
