Slow Cooker Chipotle Pork

You guys.  You know how much I love tacos (and really, all things Mexican food.)  You know we have taco Tuesday every week at our house.  You know I love to try new recipes.  This is a recipe that I will make again and again!  It makes a ton of taco meat, is super simple to put together and it tastes divine!  I had so much leftover after having tacos the first night that I ended up using this meat to make taquitos the next night and I had enough to make a full batch!  You can find the taquito recipe here.  I happened to have everything on hand for taquitos so it was really a no brainer.  If you don't want a bunch of leftovers feel free to make half of this recipe.  I imagine it would freeze really well too so if you make a full batch you could eat half now and half later!  Enjoy!
