Shredded Beef

I’ve had this recipe in mind for what seems like a long time but never tried it out. Recently, it’s because we’re only eating 1 night a week of beef or pork and hubby normally wants to grill up something he’s craving as those are the only 2 meats he really seems to get excited about.

Last night we agreed that shredded beef tacos might be a good change in our menu planning so I had a reason to cook up this base recipe.

Consider this a starter recipe and add seasonings of choice to make a rub to add to the already included salt, such as adding 2 tsp of one of the following, depending on your desired flavor palate and intended use of the shredded beef:

• Creole Seasoning
• Nearly Italian Seasoning
• Taco Seasoning
