Slow-Cooker Cuban Picadillo (with hidden, heart, liver, and kidney)

 

Picadillo is a spiced ground beef and vegetable hash and is a traditional dish in Spain, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Mexico, Cuba, and, interestingly, the Philippines. This recipe is for the Cuban style and sneaks in a healthy dose of grass-fed beef organ meats! It is so flavorful and well-spiced that you can't even tell the heart, liver, and kidney hidden alongside the ground beef.
