From Weight Watchers Slow Good Super Slow-Cooker Cookbook
Ingredients:
1 1/2 pound flank steak
12 ounces beer
3/4 cup orange juice
3/8 cup lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
8 flour tortillas
1/2 cup salsa
8 teaspoons low fat sour cream
Directions:
1. Place the steak, beer, orange juice, fresh lemon juice, salt and fresh ground pepper in a 5- or 6-quart slow cooker. Cover and cook until the steak is fork-tender, 4-5 hours on high or 8-10 hours on low.
2. Transfer the steak to a cutting board; discard all but 2 tablespoons of the cooking liquid. With two forks, shred the steak into small pieces; transfer to a bowl and stir in the reserved cooking liquid.
3. Heat the tortillas according to package directions. Top each equally with the carnitas, pico de gallo salsa, and sour cream.
