Homemade Barbacoa Tips
For the most tender beef, cook on low for 6 hours. For a quicker meal, cook on high for 3 ½ hours. To maximize the juice yield of limes, before slicing, roll each lime on a clean work surface using the palm of your hand and firm pressure for around 10 seconds. The easiest way to shred the beef is to use meat claws, and shred directly in the crockpot.
Serving Suggestions
Serve barbacoa beef over rice, as tacos, or as burritos. Top with any combination of beans, lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, onions, cilantro, guacamole, salsa, or sour cream.
