Method

  1. Trim any excess fat from the roast and cut it into four pieces.

  2. Rub the roast with black pepper and place it in a slow cooker.

  3. Add onions, green chiles, chili powder, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, cumin, chipotle peppers, and beef bouillon to the slow cooker.

  4. Pour enough water into the slow cooker to cover 1/3 of the roast.

  5. Cover the slow cooker and cook on High for approximately 8 hours or until the meat begins to fall apart. Add water if necessary to prevent the roast from drying out.

  6. Switch the slow cooker to Low and use a slotted spoon to transfer the meat to a large bowl.

  7. Shred the meat into bite-sized pieces using two forks.

  8. Return the shredded meat to the slow cooker and cook for about 20 minutes to reheat before serving.

  9. If you're uncertain about the spice level, start with 1/2 can of chipotles. If you're using a 2 lb. roast, keep all the other ingredients the same except for the chipotles – use 1/4 can instead.
