Slow-Cooked Shredded Beef
Gluten, Dairy, Egg, Nut & Refined Sugar Free
Shredded beef cooked in the slow cooker is one of the easiest things to cook when you are short on time! There’s no need to buy expensive meat to cook this with, with the slow cooking time the meat will be very tender by the time you eat it, infact it’s often better for the meat to have some fats through it as it will make it more moist.
Shredded beef will go with just about anything… We like to have ours with naan bread and salad. It also goes well with a side of sweet potato chips or veggies, salad, in a sandwich or roll or wrapped up in a lettuce leaf. Shredded beef is delicious eaten as left overs (the flavour just gets better) and it also freezes well (just make sure you have enough juices to cover the meat).
