Ingredients

  • 2 pounds beef chuck roast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 16 street-taco-size flour tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil
  • Pico de gallo, cilantro, sour cream, chopped onion for garnish

Instructions

  • Cut the roast into 3 pieces.
  • Mix together the seasonings in a small bowl.
  • Sprinkle evenly over the piece of beef.
  • Add the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic to the Instant Pot.
  • Place the beef in liquid.
  • Close and lock the lid. Set the pressure release valve to the sealing position.
  • Cook on high pressure for 40 minutes. Once the cooking time is complete, allow for a natural pressure release (about 15 minutes). Note: A larger roast might need more time to break down.
  • Open the lid and use tongs to transfer the beef to a cutting board. Shred the beef with 2 forks.
  • Return the shredded beef to the Instant Pot and stir it in the flavorful sauce.
  • Warm the tortillas on a skillet with a little cooking oil until flexible. Top with the shredded beef and any toppings you like.
