Barbacoa Meat

"Traditionally a Sunday morning treat, but barbacoa is great any morning. Barbacoa can be for the more adventurous, but a real treat none-the-less. I do not recommend substituting the cheek meat with roast, it won't taste right. Barbacoa has a certain gelatinous slide and tack that is the hallmark of the genre. Serve on tortillas with hot sauce and chopped cilantro."

Ingredients :

3 pounds beef cheek meat
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup salt
2 teaspoons ground cumin
ground black pepper to taste
2 cups water, or more as needed
1/2 yellow onion, halved and thickly sliced
3 cloves garlic, chopped

Instructions :

Prep : 10M	Cook : 12M	Ready in : 11H10M

Coat beef cheek meat with olive oil. Rub salt, cumin, and pepper into meat. Wrap meat in aluminum foil and refrigerate, 4 hours to overnight.
Pour water into a slow cooker.
Arrange onion and garlic around beef cheek meat in the aluminum foil. Wrap foil tightly around meat and vegetables. Add a second sheet of aluminum foil around meat mixture, sealing tightly; place in the slow cooker.
Cook on Low, adding more water if it has evaporated, until meat is very tender, 7 to 8 hours. Remove foil packet from slow cooker and shred meat using 2 forks.
