This recipe comes from the recipe section on the web site that I order my grass fed meat from. I believe it is from another customer. This recipe is for 6-8 but could easily be halved for those of us with smaller households, or cook the whole thing and have yummy leftovers!

Author: Danielle Walker
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 480 minutes
Serves: 6-8
Ingredients:
3 pound center cut shoulder roast
3 to 5 large dried chipotle peppers, seeds removed
½ yellow onion
¼ cup lime juice
¼ cup tomato paste
4 garlic cloves
1½ tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons cumin
2 teaspoons sea salt
1 teaspoon oregano
¾ cup beef or chicken stock
3 bay leaves
1 teaspoon whole cloves
for serving: grain-free tortillas/crepes, avocado, cilantro, sliced radish, red onions
Directions:
Cut the roast into two pieces and trim any fat. Place in the pot of a slow cooker.
Combine the chipotle peppers, onion, lime juice, tomato paste, garlic, vinegar, cumin, salt, and oregano in a food processor. Process until smooth.
Pour over the roast and add the stock, bay leaves, and cloves.
Cover and cook on low for 7 hours.
Remove the beef and shred with two forks. Return the meat to the slow cooker and continue cooking for 1 to 2 hours, until really tender.
Serve with your choice of toppings. We like avocado, radish, cilantro, and red onions.
