    | 1. Combine all seasoning in a bowl, mix well. | 2. Pleace meat in separate bowl and sprinkle seasoning and rub generously over meat - using all seasoning. | 3. Make Foil packet by laying out 2 long sheets of Heavy Duty Aluminium foil and make a cross. | 4. place meat on foil. Bring up sides of foil and fold making a packet. | 5. refrigerate for 6 hours (I marinade overnight, this gives it time to meld). | 6. SLOW COOKED: After marinating, place in a crockpot, cook 4 hours - the meat becomes very tender. Then transfer to a plate -- over Med-High Grill for 5 minutes to get a nice grill mark and crisp.

Or add 1 cup of water to the crockpot -- this makes the meat very tender and can be shredded for Burritos or tacos. (My Burrito Filling Recipe). | 8. GRILLING: | 9.
