Ingredients

• 2 pounds Beef chuck roast
• 1 tablespoon Coconut aminos
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon Pineapple extract
• 0.5 cup Sugar-free ketchup
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 0.5 teaspoon Liquid smoke
• 2 tablespoons Swerve or erythritol sweetener
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your slow cooker on the low setting.

Step 2

In a small bowl, make the spice rub by combining the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, ground ginger, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Rub the spice mixture evenly over the beef chuck roast. Make sure to cover all sides for maximum flavor.

Step 4

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef roast and sear on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Step 5

Transfer the seared beef to the slow cooker.

Step 6

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add sugar-free ketchup, apple cider vinegar, liquid smoke, coconut aminos, Swerve sweetener, and pineapple extract. Stir until well combined and simmer for 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Pour the sauce over the beef in the slow cooker.

Step 8

Cover and cook on low heat for about 6 hours or until the beef is tender and easily shredded with a fork.

Step 9

Once the beef is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it with two forks.

Step 10

Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker and mix with the sauce to ensure it's well coated.

Step 11

Serve the Keto Hawaiian Barbecue Beef hot, garnished with fresh cilantro or sliced green onions, if desired.
