CHIPOTLE ROAST FOR TACOS AND SANDWICHES

Chipotle Roast for Tacos and Sandwiches image

Beware! This slow cooker recipe is spicy, but is an excellent shredded beef for tacos, sandwiches, or enchiladas! You can even try it on crusty rolls with the juice in a bowl on the side for dipping for a Mexican-style French dip!
