Preparation

Step 1

1. Throw everything except the garnishes in your crockpot and let it cook on high for 5-6 hours.

2. Dress with garnishes and give it a squeeze of lime (a must:-) and you're good to go!

Notes: This was so, so, so good. And so nice to just throw everything in the crockpot and let it go. As is, the spices were way too much, so next time I'd cut out the Tabasco
