Slow Cooker Taco Shredded Beef

I was waiting to make this recipe, hoping to have some to put it in the freezer for a quick meal.

4 pounds boneless beef chuck roast
2 packages (1 oz each) Lawry's Taco Spices & Seasoning
1 medium onion
2 teaspoons Lawry's Seasoned Salt

1. Trim and discard all fat from meat; place meat in slow cooker. Sprinkle both packages of taco seasonings over meat with onion.
2. Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours. Remove beef to platter and shred with fork. Return meat to juices in slow cooker; stir seasoned salt.
3. Serve shredded meat in tacos, burritos, taquitos, flautas, on rolls or over cooked rice.


Well.

If anyone wants to try this out for real, please do.

I thought that maybe this would be a good use for the leg of deer Dad gave us last Thanksgiving. It had been taking up SO MUCH room in our freezer, and I wanted to get it out. I thought that maybe if I used the cookers from the kitchen at church that this would be a good thing to do. Plus, it would really load up the freezer with that extra meat.

I asked the Relief Society President if I could use the cookers from church. She said sure, so I went and picked it up one day while we were running errands. Then I dug the leg of deer out of the very bottom of the freezer. I decided it might be good to cook over night. I peeled the grocery bag of the frozen meat. I dumped it in the pan and saw all the deer hair frozen onto the meat. It was too late to pull it out (it was already sizzling on the bottom of the pan), so I figured we could just pull the hair off once it was cooked.

The smell of the onions and deer meat cooking in the roaster was enough to gag me all night long while it cooked. Even though I followed the slow cooking instruction, the pan still worked like a roaster. We had to keep adding liquid to the meat all night long, just to make sure that it wouldn't burn the house down.

The next morning after Big Chubb left to play basketball at the school at 6AM, I had to fish the meat out. It did fall right off the bone, but it looked really sick. I told Ben he would have to shred it. Well, ithas been in the fridge a whole week now. Ben looked at it the other day and said, "I think I will only eat this once it has cooked for a long time. Again."
