Mexican Shredded Beef

I’ve been asked whether I think the Instant Pot is replacing the slow cooker and my answer is NO!  I love both of them and I think there is a place for them both in the kitchen.  Although the end result is pretty much the same, delicious food,  they serve different purposes and provide a different way for getting that delicious end result.

Ingredients

• 1 Tbsp chili powder
• 1 1/2 tsp sea salt

• 2 Tbsp tomato paste
• 6 garlic cloves diced
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp Mexican oregano
• 1/2 cup picante sauce salsa
• 1 cup beef broth
• cilantro for garnish
• limes to squeeze over top

Instructions
