Crock Pot Carne Asada

This is a great and easy recipe for carne asada.  Marinate the meat the night before and throw it in the crock pot the next morning to cook all day!  How easy is that?

1/2 c. white vinegar
2 T. chili powder
1 T. olive oil
2 t. salt
1 t. garlic powder
2 lb. beef chuck roast


Mix first 5 ingredients together in a ziploc bag.  Add beef, seal bag and toss to coat.  Marinate for a minimum of 4 hours up to overnight.  Place roast in crock pot and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours.  Shred and serve in corn or flour tortillas with cilantro, salsa, avocado, sour cream, cheese and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
