Slow Cooker Directions:

Thaw freezer bag in fridge 12-24 hours before cooking.
Add freezer bag contents into slow cooker.
Cook on low 8-10 hours.
Shred the beef directly in the slow cooker with two forks and stir well to ensure everything is evenly coated with the sauce.

May top with favorite taco toppings! (cheese, guacamole, salsa, etc…)
Make it pretty: Garnish with fresh cilantro or a lime wedge.
