Ingredients

Scale

3 lbs beef chuck roast
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, sliced
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup pineapple chunks (plus extra for garnish)
2 chipotle peppers in adobo, chopped
1/4 cup adobo sauce
1 cup beef broth
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Salt and pepper, to taste
Cooked white rice
Fresh cilantro
Sliced jalapeños
Lime wedges
Chipotle mayo (optional)

Instructions

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the roast with salt and pepper and sear on all sides until browned. Transfer to the crockpot.
Add onion, garlic, pineapple chunks, chopped chipotles, adobo sauce, beef broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, and cumin to the crockpot. Stir gently.
Cover and cook on LOW for 8–9 hours or HIGH for 4–5 hours, until the beef is fork-tender.
Shred the beef directly in the crockpot using two forks. Stir to combine with the sauce.
Serve over white rice and garnish with extra pineapple, cilantro, jalapeños, lime wedges, and chipotle mayo if desired.

Notes

For less heat, reduce chipotles or use only the adobo sauce. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze up to 3 months. Reheat gently on the stovetop or microwave.
