“This recipe is always a great one to have on hand, especially if you are low one money and busy. Overnight in the slow cooker, go to church, and come back it is a good way to have tacos. Ever since trying this recipe several years ago, I don’t know if I could ” — a cook, 5★
“I was so excited to try this recipe, and my house spelled delicious as it was cooking. The meat was so tender and fell apart easily. I was so dissapointed when I tried it and it was so bland. I’m not sure what went wrong 🙁” — a cook
