Notes
Nutrition information does not include toppings.
Storage: Keep the cooked chuck roast in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. You can freeze it for up to 3 months. To reheat, transfer to a skillet and add a splash of broth to keep it juicy. Reheat over medium heat until warmed through.
Helpful Tips:
- Crispy beef. For a delicious crispy texture, spread the shredded beef in a hot skillet and let it sear undisturbed for 1-2 minutes before stirring.
- Revive leftover meat. If your leftover church roast seems a bit dry, add a splash of bone broth or lime juice while reheating to bring back moisture.
- Double up on tortillas. If using corn tortillas, stack two per taco to prevent breakage, especially if you're loading up on toppings.
- Layer your tacos right. To keep your tacos from getting soggy, place cheese or guacamole at the bottom before adding the beef to create a barrier against moisture.
