📝 Ingredients

• 1-2 tbsp olive oil
• 3-4 lb chuck roast
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 1 cup water
• 7 oz can diced roasted green chilis
• 1 1/4 cup jarred salsa (any brand)
• 1 tbsp chili powder
• 1 tsp cayenne
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tbsp cumin
• 12-18 corn or flour tortillas
• Lettuce, tomato, shredded cheese, salsa, sour cream, avocado (optional)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Coat the roast generously on all sides with oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. 2Heat a large skillet over high heat. Once hot, sear each side of the roast for 2-3 minutes until a golden brown crust is formed. Remove and place in a 6qt slow cooker.
3. 3Pour 1 cup of water in the skillet and simmer for about 30 seconds, scraping up the brown bits. Pour over the roast in the slow cooker.
4. 4Add all the remaining roast ingredients to the slow cooker and use tongs or a spatula to gently mix everything together. Cook on low for 8-10 hours or high for 4-4.5 hours, or until it falls apart easily when prodded with tongs or forks.
5. 5After cooking, use tongs to move the roast onto a cutting board. Use two forks to gently remove any large chunks of fat. Then use the forks to pull the meat apart into bite sized shreds.
6. 6Strain the remaining cooking liquids to remove chunky bits, then stir the meat and liquids back together in the slow cooker. Serve with tortillas and toppings.
