Cook for eight hours in your crock pot on the low setting. If you prefer to cook using the stove top method, cook for about 2 ½ to 3 hours until the meat is tender and can be easily shredded. Once the meat is cooked, shred and set aside 6 cups of meat to make the tacos. Refrigerate the leftover meat for other uses, see note above.
