Ingredients
  

Barbacoa:
  • 2-3 lb beef roast
  • ½ cup beef broth
  • 4 tbsp adobo sauce chipotles optional
  • 4 cloves of garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp ground cloves
  • 2 bay leaves
Bowl Ingredients:
  • 2 cups uncooked brown rice
  • 15 oz black beans rinsed
  • 1 cup guacamole
  • 4 cups romaine shredded
  • 2 medium tomatoes diced

Method
 

  1. Instructions:
  2. Mix together beef broth, adobo sauce, minced garlic, apple cider vinegar, lime juice, dried oregano, ground cumin, salt, pepper, and ground cloves. If using chipotles, put all ingredients into a blender and combine.
  3. Put the beef roast in a slow cooker and pour the mixture over it. Add bay leaves. Cook for approximately 6 hours on high.
  4. Removed bay leave and shred the beef, then place it back into the slow cooker with the mixture and stir.
  5. Add the romaine lettuce, rice, black beans, tomatoes, guacamole, and barbacoa beef to a plate or large bowl and mix. A low carb alternative would be to leave the rice out.
