Crockpot Chipotle Pineapple Pot Roast Bowl is a bold and smoky-sweet dish featuring fall-apart tender beef slow-cooked in a rich chipotle and pineapple sauce, perfect for serving over rice or grain bowls.

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 to 3 lbs beef chuck roast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, with a little juice)
  • 1–2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon adobo sauce (from the can)
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1 small red onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • For serving: cooked rice or quinoa, sliced avocado, fresh cilantro, extra pineapple, lime wedges

Instructions

  1. Season beef chuck roast with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear roast on all sides, about 3–4 minutes per side.
  3. Transfer roast to crockpot.
  4. Add pineapple chunks, chopped chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, beef broth, sliced red onion, and minced garlic around and over the roast.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4–5 hours until beef is very tender.
  6. Shred beef directly in crockpot using two forks and mix into the sauce.
  7. Stir in fresh lime juice and adjust seasoning as needed.
  8. Serve over rice or quinoa and top with avocado, cilantro, and extra pineapple.

Notes

  • Add black beans or corn during the last 30 minutes for extra texture.
  • Drizzle in a little honey for a sweeter flavor profile.
  • Increase chipotle peppers for more heat.
  • Serve over cauliflower rice or in lettuce cups for a lighter option.
  • Store in refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Freeze for up to 2 months in freezer-safe containers.
