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 love using a slow-cooker for cooking a roast. This will be so good over rice! Pinned it!!
Perfect and so easy! This recipe will be a staple at my house! I cooked a small rump roast and only bought 4 rolls. (1 per person) After my son devoured his sandwich, he took off to the store to buy more rolls, and ate a second. I did need to cook the meat for 10 hours because the meat was too tough to shred. If you like to serve it french dip style, my recommendation is to use twice the amount of beef broth. Thank you for sharing this awesome recipe!
I have a pressure cooker can you please instruct me on time conversions for this recipe. I’ve heard that it is approx one third of the time that it would be to cook the roast in the oven.
Making this right now.
This works great too for wild game. I have some bear meat going now and will use it for fajitas and nachos this week for quick meals on meeting nights. I personally find that you can use any piece of meat pulled out of the freezer. I always sear the meat because I like that taste and sometimes I take a shortcut and just toss a package of onion soup mix on it. I’m going to go look for some of your uses. The only other thing I can think of is to add it to fried rice or barley pilaf, or make some shepard’s pies when I have some leftover veggies. I’ll make some gravy, throw in the shredded meat, a layer of veggies and then top off with some well-seasoned mashed potatoes. I make small ones in pyrex containers that I can heat in the microwave at the office. I love to cook things that can be thrown together in a matter of minutes AND which will have leftovers for lunch another day. Thanks for sharing your methods.
Looks delicious and I will definitely try this recipe. However,
what is Montreal Steak seasoning? I have not looked at the supermarket, but do you have any idea if it is available in supermarket in Sydney? One last question, is the beef broth home made or do you buy and use the one we can find in supermarket please?
Thank you for your response!
So good!! I am making it today for the second time. Defiantly going to be doing this a lot. We are have is on BBQ pizza tonight!!
Does everything shred in the crock pot? what if I don’t want certain things to fall apart?
I made this today. OMG it was so good. although I used two cups of beef broth and 4 tbl of Worcestershire sauce. we made French dips out of it. AWESOME,
I have a roast going in the crock pot now. Cant wait to try this tonight. Will write more later.
