Instructions
1. Place the beef chuck roast in the slow cooker and coat it with taco seasoning, salt, and pepper

3. Cover and cook on low until very tender or on high if a shorter cook time is needed
4. Shred the beef with two forks and mix it back into the juices in the slow cooker

Notes
Chuck roast works best because it becomes tender and juicy during slow cooking
Allow the shredded beef to rest in its cooking liquid so it absorbs more flavor
Fresh toppings add balance in texture and taste to the warm shredded beef filling
If the mixture is too saucy, let it simmer uncovered for a few minutes to reduce
