Directions
This was a recipe request I was glad to make inspired by Chipotles. In my opinion, this Barbacoa beef is better than Chipotle! I serve this over cilantro lime rice (I make it with brown rice too) and top it with corn salsa, a must (extra calories of course)! These would also make great beef tacos, enjoy!! If beef is not your thing, check out more Instant Pot recipes here.,,Seems like everyone bought an Instant Pot (affil link) last week on Amazon Prime Day. I got mine last Christmas, but Ive been using my stove top pressure cooker for years and love it because it cuts down the cooking time in half. This recipe was originally written for a conventional pressure cooker, but I just updated it for both! If you dont have a pressure cooker, you can still make this in a Dutch oven cooked on low a few hours or even in the slow cooker.
