  • Use a flavorful braising liquid: The braising liquid is what gives the shredded beef its flavor. Use a combination of beef broth, water, and spices, such as garlic, onion, and paprika.
  • Cook the beef until it is fall-apart tender: The beef should be cooked until it easily shreds with a fork.
