Ingredientes:

• – 3 lbs beef chuck roast, cut into large chunks
• – 1 onion, diced
• – 4 cloves garlic, minced
• – 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped
• – 1 tablespoon ground cumin
• – 1 tablespoon dried oregano

• – Salt and pepper to taste
• – 1 cup beef broth

1. In a large bowl, combine the diced onion, minced garlic, chopped chipotle peppers, ground cumin, dried oregano, smoked paprika, ground cloves, ground cinnamon, salt, and pepper.
2. Add the beef chuck roast chunks to the bowl and toss to coat the meat evenly with the spice mixture.
3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the seasoned beef chunks. Sear the meat on all sides until browned, then transfer the meat to a slow cooker.
4. Pour the beef broth over the meat in the slow cooker and add the bay leaves.
5. Cover the slow cooker and cook the barbacoa on low heat for 6-8 hours, or until the meat is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
6. Once the barbacoa is cooked, remove the meat from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks.
7. Serve the shredded barbacoa in warm tortillas, garnished with fresh cilantro and lime wedges.
8. Enjoy your homemade barbacoa with your favorite toppings, such as salsa, diced onions, and chopped cilantro.
