    | 1. Mix all of the spices together and sprinkle most on the roast, reserving about 1 tsp. | 2. Put the roast and water/broth in a crock pot on low for 6-8 hours. | 3. Now you can do 2 things here: remove the roast, drain the liquid, put the roast back in the crock, shred it with the remaining seasonings and about 1/2 cup of water and stir OR. | 4. remove a little of the liquid from the pot and shred the meat (with forks) in the remaining liquid and taste and season if necessary. | 5. *if I use a roast with a good amount of fat I usually drain it to drain off some of that grease, if it's lean then I use the liquid it cooked in. | 6. Serve it up! It makes great burritos (get the big tortillas!) with all the fixins- including the beans and rice. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
