Shredded Beef for Tacos


2.3# beef round roast
2 cloves pressed garlic
2 small cans green chilies
1/2 white onion, chopped*
2-3 t cumin
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 can beef broth**

Roast at 275F for 5+ hours***

And since this was just one of those "attempts" here are a few notes for next time:
*That's all I had, otherwise it would have been a whole onion.
**I would use additional fluid [water or beef broth], it was slightly dry, but still tasty.
***Though it was tender enough, if i had added more fluid, it could have cooked for another 45 minutes and been even more tender without being overdone.

To complete the taco add:
black beans
colby jack cheese
guacamole
salsa
lime juice
cilantro

Among the many things I love, I love shredded beef tacos. Pure Goodness.
