Recipe Tips
- You can brown the beef before placing it into the slow cooker. This process is a personal preference and won’t profoundly impact the outcome of this dish.
- The slow cooker marinade is likely to be quite thin by the time it is finished cooking. You can thicken it up with some cornstarch and water. Just mix one tablespoon of water with one tablespoon of cornstarch. Once combined, add to the pulled beef marinade.
- As I mentioned above, you can mix the beef in with a BBQ sauce rather than the marinade that we cook with the beef.
