Slow Cooker Shredded Beef is perfect to add to so many delicious dishes and recipes. Make this simple beef recipe to keep on hand for so many easy dinner recipes.
Making Slow Cooker Shredded Beef to have on hand for recipes throughout the week has to be one of my favorite things ever. Well, that and making slow cooker chicken for the same purpose. But, having shredded beef stocked in the refrigerator just makes life easier.
And thankfully, it doesn’t take much thought, time, or energy on my part.
Some days, I have none to spare!
Do you ever feel like that?
Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely love cooking. It is like free therapy for me. No need to pay to go sprawl out on someone’s sofa to tell them about my day when I can just head to my kitchen and get reenergized while baking a cake or making pie crust, making homemade bread, or even something as simple as making breakfast or supper for my family.
But some days, especially when our homeschooling day seems to linger from sun-up to sun-down, we’re running from one activity or appointment to another, and I haven’t even attempted to think about what to make for supper, having made shredded beef in the slow cooker is like the most brilliant thing I’ve ever done. It makes me feel like a genius or something.
And it sort of tastes like that, too.
So, pull that slow cooker out of the cabinet and get ready to make some delicious shredded beef. I’ve got some absolute delicious dishes that you’ll definitely want to have this beef ready and waiting to go into like shredded beef nachos, brunswick stew, enchilada casserole.
Here’s my Slow Cooker Shredded Beef recipe. You’ll love it. Promise.

I just made this today. I had a chuck roast in the slow cooker when I saw your post so I added your suggestions and I just pulled it out and shredded it. It’s great! Thanks for the tip. We were just going to have roast beef and mashed potatoes with gravy but neither of us were in the mood this evening. Now we have shredded beef to use for the rest of the week. Since I’ve never done shredded beef before, I’ll have to find recipes for it, but I’m looking forward to it.
I’m so glad you loved it, Kim. Today, I’m sharing a recipe my family loves for Shredded Beef Nachos
that you might enjoy. You can also use the shredded beef in place of ground beef in beef enchiladas, in burritos, salads, stuffed mushrooms, quick soups, etc. I hope you enjoy it!!!
I’m always looking for ways to make my life easier- this is great. Perfect for so many uses!!
Thanks Robyn – nice recipe. Love my slow cooker.
I love having meat like this on hand! Slow cooker meals are so handy!
My mother in law does this! Thanks for the recipe. Going beyond ham, bacon, chicken and hamburger I get nervous with all those cuts of beef (what do I do with them?!) . But this looks great. AND it finally cooled down two days ago, so bring on fall comfort food!
Yum! Slow-cooker recipes are a total life-saver! This shredded beef looks delicious! 🙂
I made your balsamic shredded beef and it was a hit in the office. I can’t wait to try this. I love these kind of recipes as I don’t have to babysit them and can get household chores done, or find some time for my crafting will it cooks! Thanks!
Wow, that beef look so good. My family will love this and Our favorite seasoning is the montreal steak, I just bought some yesterday! YUM!
I can’t wait to try this…I know the boys will love it (and I will, too)!!! That Montreal Steak Seasoning is my favorite!
I’m really good about having shredded chicken on hand, but it would be awesome to have this, too!
I know it’s been a long time, but would you mind sharing your “shredded chicken” recipe and how you like to use it. Also, how long can you keep it in fridge? I am new to the Slow Cooker cooking craze! Thanks so kindly, Julie
