Slow-Cooker Chipotle Beef Carnitas
I came up with this recipe while trying to figure out what I could do with a pot roast that had been in the freezer. Now I keep the rub in a plastic bag, ready and waiting in my cupboard, and I can get the roast in the slow cooker in less than 15 minutes. —Ann Piscitelli, Nokomis, Florida

So delicious! The only change I made was reducing the liquid left in the crock pot after removing the meat. Reduce until it is a saucy consistency, then stir back into the shredded meat. Definitely a favorite recipe of ours now!
This was amazing. No changes.
Perfection! Fall apart tender! A delicious blend of spices too. I prepared a 1/2 batch of rub because I wasn't sure I wanted extra if I didn't like the recipe. This one is a keeper!!
This is FANTASTIC! I didn't change a thing, and won't next time, either. The meat is super tender and very flavorful. It was about as spicy as the kids could handle, but they still enjoyed it!
