Ingredients: 3 lbs beef chuck roast, trimmed and cut into chunks. 1 onion, diced. 4 cloves garlic, minced. 1 teaspoon ground cumin. 1 teaspoon chili powder. 1 teaspoon paprika. 1 teaspoon dried oregano. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Juice of 2 limes. 1/4 cup orange juice. 1/4 cup chicken broth.
Instructions: To make the beef stew, put beef chunks, diced onion, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper in a slow cooker. Mix the orange juice, lime juice, and chicken broth together and pour it over the beef. Make sure to stir everything together well. Put the lid on top and cook on low heat for 8 hours, or until the beef is soft and can be shred with a fork. Shred the beef with two forks right in the slow cooker after it's done cooking. Set the heat to low and let the shredded beef soak up the juices for another 15 to 30 minutes. Put beef carnitas in tacos, burritos, or rice and top with your favorite things.
