Preparation

Step 1

1.) Combine broth, vinegar, celery, onion, bell pepper, garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper in a 6-qt slow cooker. Add beef, submerging it by tucking the vegetables under, over and between the pieces.

2.) Put the lid on and cook on low until the meat is fork-tender about 8 hours.

3.) Transfer the meat to a cutting board; let stand for 10 minutes. Shred the meat with 2 forks and return it to the slow cooker. Stir in cilantro. Garnish with jalapeno and serve warm tortillas on the side.
