If you don't have fresh lime juice. You can use the jar juice and a few fresh young lime leaves to get the same flavor profile. I keep a few in a baggie in the freezer along with lemon grass, galangal and ginger to use in a pinch.
Told my kids, first become the right person then meet the right person at the right time (usually when you are not looking). They all have met their right person without all the baggage. 😊
I made this for dinner tonight. The flavors are amazing!! My house smelled like a restaurant. My husband loved it and he’s the pickiest eater. Thanks for this amazing recipe! I’m going to try the chipotle shrimp with the leftover peppers 🌶 next
This is a version we will be trying very soon! We always take our tortillas, dip them in the juice, place on a flat top with a little bit of cheese, some meat, fold in half and fry on both sides - Birria style! So much cheaper than Taco Tuesday for a whole family.
Your recipe is sooo much easier then so many other people’s requiring you to blend the ingredients first and sear the meat! Thank you for making it not intimidating!! ❤
I've just recently subscribed to this channel, and this was the third recipe I've tried--and all three have been a huge hit with the family. I'm so thrilled to have found such a great source of delicious, healthy recipies that my kids absolutely devour. Can't wait to try more from this channel. Thanks for the great content, and keep 'em coming!!
WAITED FOR YOUR VIDEO. DEFINITELY WILL TRY TO DO IT SOON. NOW JUST HAVE TO BUY A SLOW COOKER 😜. THANK YOU FOR BEING AN INSPIRATION FOR MY CHANNEL ❤❤❤❤❤.
You are so charming! 🥰 Your recipes are very tasty and the way you keep the kitchen clean while you cook, inspires me to cook more. I love cooking, but hate messing up my kitchen 😜🤦🏻♀️ Will definitely be trying this recipe soon! The lentil soup was a hit in our house.
You did it again! I make these in London as we have Chipotle paste I made this for my in-laws (they are Indian) they were blown away by the spices! Will be making again. Thank you xxx
So I know its a bit off topic, but I have LPR, and celiac so living with it is not easy. I decided to only make your recipes for the entire week to see what happens, and for the first time in months I woke up without any LPR symptoms, so thank you so so so much! You are awesome.
I love using my slow cooker! Can't wait to try this! I appreciate all your videos to share ideas for healthy living. I've been working so hard on eating healthier and have been feeling a lot better than when I was eating junk food often. Thank you for what you do.
I was pleasantly surprised that you had a slow cooker recipe. Then I was shocked that it was for barbacoa. It’s one of those dishes I never thought to try at home. But you’ve shown me that it can be done. Thank you. I am definitely using this recipe.
I actually have a few slow cooker recipes! Another one is my carnitas slow cooker recipe on my channel 😊 They're both so easy to make with the right combination of spices.
I can't quite get over this...just this morning I got it in my head that I wanted to make barbacoa. Of course, having no idea how to make it, I decide to do some research. I come onto RU-vid and you have a new video posted for barbacoa!! You read my mind 😯😆 so excited to make this, thank you!
This looks so delicious Lisa! We love beef barbacoa! A lot of the times we just to have it over beans and rice and salad. I like your serving suggestions You are such an amazing cook! Thanks again!
I made this and it’s absolutely delicious! Highly recommend! So easy to make and such great depth of flavor. Definitely one of my go to recipes now. 👍🏻😊
This looks amazing, as all your recipes Lisa! I'd love to share a trick to shred the meat: I put it in my Kitchen Aid and give it a stir on slow. In seconds, all the meat is shredded!
I made this I seared my meet on the pellet grill at 500 for about 6 minutes each side put it in the Crock-Pot and added some bell pepper man this was really delicious I really love this thank you so much!!
Also I appreciate your oats overnight oatmeal smoothies I've been eating these for 3 weeks for breakfast 4 times a week and I've lost about 9 lb and feel better all the time thank you so much for that and I am continually watching your recipes and listening to a lot of your ideas
I just found your channel and love it. The Easy Barbacoa recipe looked so good I couldnt wait to try it, however, unfortunately I didn't have a chuck roast and was too impatient to go to the store so I followed the recipe exactly with a couple modifications. #1 I used chicken instead of beef and #2 I used the Instant Cooker instead of Crock Pot - let me tell you it turned out AMAZING!! I also made your chipotle sauce with the leftover peppers, it was sooo good and a perfect way to top the tacos off (gonna use the extra sauce soon for the chipotle shrimp recipe). I served it with cilantro/lime rice which made for a great meal. Can't wait to try it with beef next time, as well as, trying more of your creations. Thank you.
Looks so yum. I've prepped it tonight (sunday night) and chucked in the fridge until the morning when I'll start it in the cooker - hopefully it turns out half as good as the video!
God I love your recipes and channel. You take really complicated things and make them so pure and simple. Seriously the only one around with that kind of style! I thought you lived on a farm because you respect the nutrients and value in the foods so much but I can’t believe u live in LA!
Lisa, this recipe is wonderful!!! I made it today for dinner and my husband was raving about it. We are Mexican and both our mothers cook authentic Mexican food all the time. This dish is awesome and not much further than the traditional Mexican barbacoa. So delicious, thank you!!!
I still have/use a round slow cooker for smaller meals. I am the only one in my family who is eating keto/low carb so that slow cooker is a perfect size for me and takes less space in the fridge for leftovers.
I wonder if this is close to the recipe they have at Cafe Rio. I’ve never tried Chipotle version. Looks delish! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!
I have a roast, I wanted something new, I open my phone to look for a recepie and you appear with this one. Is in the slow cooker. I know will be delicious like others I have try.
Girl, you must be psychic. Beef for the slow cooker is on the list for the next grocery run! Now so are all of the other ingredients. I love using chipotle peppers & using the slow cooker, so this recipe is just what the doctor ordered. Super for a keto/paleo diet, too. My meal suggestion is - a fork!! :-) One question - does it freeze well? Any tips on how to do it properly? I'm thinking of making a big batch like this but it's just me here. Thanks Lisa!
Hi Lisa, this looks amazing. I don't have a slow cooker, would you recommend using a a Dutch oven / cast iron pot and cook on slow on the stove, or put on low temperature in the oven?
