Hello friends, and welcome back to ASW Homestead!
If you’ve been around here for long, you know tacos are a family favorite—especially on busy weeknights or when we’re feeding a crowd. But I’ll be honest: standing over a skillet cooking taco meat batch by batch just isn’t my idea of fun. That’s where the slow cooker comes to the rescue!
These Slow Cooker Street Tacos bring all the bold flavor we love, without the fuss. The meat simmers low and slow until it’s fall-apart tender, then we crisp up the tacos in the oven for that irresistible “street taco” vibe. And instead of reaching for a store-bought seasoning packet, I always use our Homemade Taco Seasoning—a pantry staple here on the homestead (you can find the recipe right here).


These tacos check all the boxes:
Family-Friendly: Everyone can top theirs with salsa, guacamole, or queso just how they like it.
Budget-Friendly: A chuck roast stretches beautifully into multiple meals, especially with smaller street taco tortillas.
Make-Ahead Magic: The slow cooker does the heavy lifting while you go about your day, and the oven adds just the right crunch at the end.
It’s the kind of meal that keeps everyone coming back for seconds—and makes Tuesday night or any other night feel like a fiesta. 🎉
There’s just something about tacos that feels like a celebration—even on an ordinary weeknight. These slow cooker street tacos make it easy to feed your family well without spending hours in the kitchen. And when you use our homemade taco seasoning, you know exactly what’s going into your food—simple, wholesome ingredients with big flavor.
So next time you need a meal that’s frugal, flavorful, and family-approved, give these tacos a try. I’d love to know—what’s your favorite taco topping? Leave a comment below or tag me on social when you make this recipe. 🌮💛

I’m here to share recipes and ideas to help others make their home a simple homemade homestead.
