  • Instructions:
  • 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.
  • Put the beef roast in a slow cooker and pour the mixture over it. Add bay leaves. Cook for approximately 6 hours on high.
  • Removed bay leave and shred the beef, then place it back into the slow cooker with the mixture and stir.
  • 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.
