I've been making this for a few years now, and it's a staple in our meal rotation. It's fantastic, versatile, and SO easy to make. I've made it with beef as written, but to save calories I usually use a mix of light and dark chicken. I use the Tabasco Chipotle flavored sauce - it's milder than the original and has a great smoky flavor to it. Even when I'm making it 'mild' for company, I still use at least half the bottle. I wonder if the reviewers who find this way too hot for their tastes are not completely shredding the meat as is intended? I can't count how many of my friends have asked for this recipe - it's a definite winner!
