I never write reviews but I have to rave about how easy and delicious this recipe is- thank you!! My family loves tacos, although we moved somewhere where Mexican food is hard to find, so I’m grateful to have found your recipe. I use whatever meat I have on hand and every time it turns out great. We make this at least once a month, perfectly simple!

We had another night of carnitas. Easily this could be made into enchiladas, burritos or just a pile of yummy stuff on a plate with other sides to compliment it. The remainder has been divided into servings and placed in the freezer for nights I don’t want to cook and of course, I have a serving to run thru the freeze dryer. It looked lean enough to FD ok…..I will test run the first batch and if it turns out amazing, I will cook another batch and skim off any fat hiding in the liquid before adding the meat/veggies back in. Less fat means a longer storage life. This could be another fantastic trail dinner to share with you someday!

In reply to deb c }i{. Wohoooo!!! And what do you have planned with the leftovers? Is it lean enough to do something with your freeze drier??

Hey…this stuff is good…really, really, really good! I always slightly panic at the words cayenne pepper and jalapeno…I’m a wimp….but I made the recipe as printed…well, I used a London Broil instead of Flank steak because Flank, Skirt or Flat-Iron do not exist in my store…..and…..the flavors were amazing! Even though we threw the shredded meat into tortillas and topped them like regular tacos, the taste and texture weren’t even similar! Mr. Picky won’t knowingly eat bell peppers, so I chopped them up small and they disappeared into the meat perfectly. If he had spotted a green thing, I would have told him it was jalapeno anyway! This recipe is a 100% keeper! Thanks a zillion!!!

In reply to freespiritedsprygirl. Gottach now! Nope, I don't change a thing and I do make this with chicken occasionally (still just don't over cook), it's very good! The chicken gets a little dry in the slow cook so sometimes I'll add a little chicken stock or even some tomato juice to the bottom of the slow cooker so it has a little liquid to cook in. You are going to love it.

In reply to Melissa. I mean as far as the seasonings. I like shredded chicken for tacos,burritos and enchiladas.
