Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs beef chuck roast
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup pure honey
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
- 8 taco shells (soft or crispy)
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 1/2 cup diced onion
Instructions
- Trim excess fat from the beef chuck roast. Season with salt and pepper. Sear in a skillet over medium-high heat until browned on all sides.
- In a separate pan, melt butter over low heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about one minute. Pour this mixture over the seared beef.
- Drizzle honey and BBQ sauce over the beef, ensuring all sides are coated. Cover tightly with foil.
- Slow-cook in a preheated oven at 300°F (150°C) for approximately three hours or until tender enough to shred.
- Let the beef rest for ten minutes before shredding it with two forks. Mix well with any remaining juices and serve in taco shells topped with cilantro and onions.
