Preparing the Ingredients
- 1
Prepare the French Fries
Cook the French fries according to package instructions until golden and crispy. Set aside.

Braised Beef Preparation
If not using pre-braised beef, braise beef in a slow cooker with your choice of broth and seasonings for 4-6 hours until tender. Shred and set aside.
