1. Heat up the oil in a large skillet or pot and thoroughly sear the meat on all sides. If you don’t have a really big pot you can divide it in half and sear each half separately.
2. Put the meat in a crock pot, add the spices you’ve selected and cook on high for about 5 hours or low for 8 or 9 hours. You can do this in a pot on the stove and adjust the cooking time accordingly.
3. Remove the meat and allow to cool. Discard the juice.
4. When the meat has cooled enough to work with shred it using two forks. This can be a coarse or fine shred as you like.
5. Make something Mexican.
