You can make one specifically for this recipe, using either an instant pot or slow cooker. Couldn’t be easier!. We have all the details outlined below. Tender, juicy beef with cheddar cheese and wrapped in a crispy corn tortilla. Such a delicious way to breathe new life into leftovers!

Tips for Making the Perfect Shredded Beef Taquitos

To get that perfect golden crispy shell on the outside, fry each corn tortilla for about ten seconds on each side in hot oil, and let them dry on a paper towel.Working quickly, add shredded cheddar cheese, then some shredded beef. Add the cheese first, so it won’t melt out of the shell.Bake the roll ups seam side down until they’re sealed, then turn over and bake some more until they’re golden all the way around.These taquitos are delicious served with sour cream, salsa or our delicious homemade guacamole.If you have lots of beef to use up, make a bunch of these taquitos.
