Coke Zero Shredded Taco Beef
Report
Coke Zero Shredded Taco Beef is slow-cooked beef roast with green pepper, jalapeno, chipotle chile, garlic, and spices simmered in Coke Zero for sweetness and moisture. After cooking, the beef is shredded and simmered longer to absorb flavors, creating tender meat suitable for tacos.
Description
This recipe uses a 3-pound beef roast cooked in a slow cooker with diced green pepper, jalapeno, chipotle chile, and garlic. Seasoned with cumin, onion powder, salt, and black pepper, the beef is cooked with a can of Coke Zero, which adds subtle sweetness without sugar. The low and slow cooking for five hours tenderizes the beef, which is then shredded and returned to the cooker to meld flavors further.
The resulting shredded beef is tender and flavorful with a smoky, mildly spicy profile from the peppers and chipotle. This filling works well for tacos or burritos.
