  4. Add large pieces of celery, carrot and onion<\/li>\n
  5. Add salt, pepper, oregano, cloves, and <\/li>\n
  6. Bring water to a boil and simmer for 2-1\/2 – 3 hours
    \nIf using a crock pot, let slow cook on low for 6-8 hours.<\/li>\n
  7. Let cool so you can handle it safely – KEEP the braising liquid
    \nKeep some for gravy, and use some to keep the meat moist in the refrigerator<\/li>\n
  8. Shred while still warm – refrigerate for up to a week in the braising liquid
    \nDiscard any large pieces of fat or gristle.<\/li>\n
  9. When ready to serve, heat up a skillet with butter, onion and garlic<\/li>\n
  10. Sear the shredded meat in the hot skillet\u00a0 – this will create more texture in the meat<\/li>\n
  11. Add 1 small (drained) can of diced tomatoes and 1 can green chilies<\/li>\n
  12. Add salt, pepper and desired spices<\/li>\n
  13. Rehydrate with a bit of the braising liquid<\/li>\n
  14. Cook for about 20 minutes, then serve on taco shells, tostada shells or tortillas.
    \nThis is also good when mixed with BBQ sauce and served on a hamburger bun<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
