Slow Cooker Shredded Beef
This recipe will change the way you cook! This is a piggyback meal. You make it once and use it in two separate meals. It’s not like leftovers where you eat the same meal two times. The idea of the piggyback recipe is that you make double the amount of the main ingredient and use it in two totally separate meals. 
 
 Read the Serving Suggestions at the bottom for ways to piggyback this super simple, outrageously delicious (and did I mention cost effective?) recipe.
 
 
Ingredients

Chuck Roast - 2-2.5 lbs for a single meal
     (double all ingredients for a piggyback)
     (keep it cost effective by watching for a sale)
1 large onion, sliced
2 Tbls fresh ginger, minced
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 jalepeno, chopped & seeds removed
1/4 cup Braggs Amino Acid (or so sauce)
Large bunch of cilantro
Juice of 1 lime
Red pepper flake, to taste (optional)
Instructions

STEP ONE:
Spray the inside of your slow cooker with coconut oil spray or similar. Lay sliced onions on the bottom of the cooker. Add roast on top of that. Layer the rest of the ingredients on top of the roast. Turn on low for 8 hours or high for 4-5 hours (each slow cooker varies)

STEP TWO:
The roast is complete when the meat falls apart with two forks. Keep all ingredients in there, shredding and mixing ingredients as you go along. It’s ready to serve!
