In a blender, combine beef broth, garlic cloves, oregano, cumin, ground cloves, sea salt, black pepper, apple cider vinegar, and lime juice.
Add the chipotle chilis and adobo sauce from the can to the blender.
Blend on high until the sauce is completely smooth. Set aside.
Cut the beef chuck roast into approximately 3-inch cubes.
Season all sides of the beef cubes generously with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown all over.
Transfer the seared beef to the insert of a slow cooker.
Pour the blended sauce over the beef in the slow cooker. Add the bay leaves.
Cover and cook on high for 4 hours.
After 4 hours, the beef will be tender. Use two forks to shred the beef directly in the slow cooker, mixing it with the juices.
Serve the barbacoa beef in bowls over cilantro lime rice with your favorite toppings.
