Ingredients

• 3 pounds Beef chuck roast
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 2 teaspoons Smoked paprika
• 1 cup Sugar-free BBQ sauce
• 1 cup Beef broth
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar

Directions

Step 1

Start by trimming any excess fat from the beef chuck roast to reduce calorie intake while maintaining flavor.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.

Step 3

Rub the spice mixture evenly over the beef roast, ensuring it's coated on all sides to impart flavor during cooking.

Step 4

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef roast and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until browned. This step locks in juices and flavor.

Step 5

Transfer the seared beef to your slow cooker.

Step 6

In the same skillet, reduce the heat and stir in the beef broth, scraping any browned bits from the bottom. Let this warm for a minute to absorb flavors.

Step 7

Pour the beef broth mixture over the beef in the slow cooker.

Step 8

Add the sugar-free BBQ sauce and apple cider vinegar to the slow cooker, turning the beef to ensure it's fully coated with the sauce.

Step 9

Cover and cook on low heat for 8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours. The slow cooking will help tenderize the beef.

Step 10

Once cooked, use two forks to shred the beef directly in the slow cooker. Mix well to combine with the BBQ sauce.

Step 11

Serve hot. This low carb beef can be paired with a side of coleslaw or wrapped in lettuce leaves for a healthier alternative.
