Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds beef chuck roast
- 1 large yellow onion
- 3 cloves garlic cloves
- 15 ounces diced tomatoes
- 15 ounces black beans
- 1 cup beef broth
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 pieces burrito-size flour tortillas
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup fresh cilantro
Instructions
Chop the yellow onion into small pieces and mince the garlic cloves.
Place the beef chuck roast into the slow cooker. Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, diced tomatoes (with juice), drained and rinsed black beans, and beef broth.
Sprinkle the chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper evenly over the beef and vegetables.
Set the slow cooker to low and cook for 8 hours, or until the beef is tender and easily shredded with a fork.
Once the beef is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it with two forks. Return the shredded beef to the slow cooker, stirring to combine with the juices and beans.
Warm the flour tortillas in a microwave or on a skillet for easier handling.
To assemble each burrito, spoon a generous portion of the beef and bean mixture onto the center of a tortilla. Top with shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and fresh cilantro.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inward, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to create a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Serve immediately, or keep warm in the oven at 200°F if preparing in advance.
