One of our favorite meals - tacos! Done easily and deliciously in the crock pot or slow cooker! Great for parties, tailgates, taco Tuesday, Cinco de Mayo, or anytime!
Working in batches so as not to crowd the pan, brown the cubes of beef in a large skillet, cooking until well browned on all sides, about 10-20 minutes per batch. Remove beef from pan once it is browned and place it in the crock pot.
Add 1/3 cup water to the pan, and deglaze the pan, scraping the browned bits up from the bottom of the pan. Pour the deglazing water into the crock pot.
In a medium bowl, mix all remaining ingredients with a whisk until thoroughly combined, and pour over the beef. The beef should be mostly submerged in the cooking liquid, if it isn’t add a little more water to the pot.
Turn crock-pot on high, and cook, covered, for about 4 hours or until beef is easily shredded.
Serve Carne Asada in tacos, burritos, nachos, sandwiches, anywhere you want tasty Mexican food.

Notes
I figure we got anywhere from 8-12 servings from this recipe. It'll depend on how much you eat, and what else you put in your tacos.Adapted from Carne Asada Marinade
