Slow Cooked Balsamic Beef Is Just As Good As Pulled Pork

What’s your favorite way to cook beef? For the most part, Americans are pretty traditional when it comes to how they consume this meat. We all love a good hamburger in the summer and on nicer occasions, we may even allow ourselves the luxury of a nice steak. Still, the world of beef is much more vast and variable than we may know. Aside from the main cuts, there are plenty of cheaper meats to use in tacos and other recipes if you know how to cook them correctly—even cheaper cuts can be incredibly tender under the right circumstances.

4. When the time is up, open up the slow cooker and make sure the meat looks like it’s been cooked through. If everything is good, take the roast out, get two forks out and start pulling it apart like you would a pulled pork recipe. After it’s well-shredded, put the shredded beef back in the slow cooker and mix it with all the juices and you’re ready to serve!
