Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Beef chuck roast
  • 4 cloves Minced garlic
  • 3 pieces Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Adobo sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons Dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
  • 0.25 teaspoon Ground cloves
  • 1 cup Beef broth
  • 0.25 cup Fresh lime juice
  • 4 cups Cauliflower rice
  • 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 2 medium Diced avocado
  • 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 0.5 cup Sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Start by seasoning the beef chuck roast with salt and black pepper on all sides.

Step 2

Place the beef in a slow cooker. Add minced garlic, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, ground cumin, oregano, black pepper, ground cloves, beef broth, and lime juice.

Step 3

Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or until the beef easily shreds.

Step 4

Once the beef is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it with two forks. Return it to the juices in the slow cooker to keep warm.

Step 5

In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and then the cauliflower rice. Sauté until tender, about 5 minutes.

Step 6

To assemble the burrito bowls, place a generous scoop of cauliflower rice in each bowl. Top with shredded barbacoa beef, and garnish with fresh cilantro, diced avocado, and halved cherry tomatoes.

Step 7

Add a dollop of sour cream to each bowl for added creaminess.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb barbacoa burrito bowl!
