Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp avocado oil
- 2 lb beef chuck roast
- 2/3 cup beef broth
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 3 large cloves garlic minced
- 2/3 cup yellow onion chopped
- 3 Tbsp cider vinegar
- 3 chipotle chilis in adobo sauce
- 1 Tbsp ground cumin
- 1 Tbsp dried oregano
- 1.5 tsp sea salt to taste
Instructions
- Blend the beef broth, lime juice, garlic, yellow onion, cider vinegar, chilis, cumin, oregano, and sea salt in a small blender and set aside.
- Cut the beef roast into 4-6 large chunks.
- Press the Saute button on the Instant Pot and add the oil. Once hot, carefully place the chunks of meat on the surface. Brown 2 minutes per side.
- Pour the adobo sauce over the browned meat and secure the lid on the Instant Pot. Pressure cook on high for 60 minutes.
- When the pot has finished its cycle and beeps, allow the pressure to naturally release.
- Remove lid and transfer the chunks of beef to a cutting board. Use 2 forks to shred the beef and place the meat back in the pot. Stir well and allow beef to sit 15 minutes or longer to absorb the juices.
- Serve barbacoa beef in tacos, burritos, or bowls.
