I’m always excited to try a new slow cooker recipe, and these beef tacos are fab! Savory and versatile, you can use them in tacos (as we did) or on a bun topped with fresh veggies.
The hard work for this recipe is just browning the beef and chopping up a white onion and some garlic. Simple! The cook time is 6 hours, so go about your day and come home to a delicious dinner.
Now that football season is here, add these tacos to your game day menu to feed the masses. Hello, taco bar!
