I can not believe I made this!! It is soo delicious!! Cooked it in Crock Pot on high for 4ish hrs. Added green salsa and onion soup mix packet to sauteed onions and peppers, then broth, japs and cilantro. So flavorFULL! Can't wait to use left overs in the morning with scrambled eggs!

I made this a little different than the recipe, using my crockpot, but otherwise stuck to the basic recipe and it was delicious! My dad is a retired firefighter and this was something I thought I'd serve him and the rest of the family while he was here visiting. He had to have the recipe! This is wonderful!

This was very flavorful. The meat didn't get as tender as I expected, but I think I'll try cooking it in the slow cooker next time to remedy that. Also, depending on the salsa you use, you might need to add salt. I think the key is using a quality salsa verde. I used a local (Texas) fire-roasted salsa verde, and it gave it a great flavor. If you use a cheap salsa, the result will be terrible. Since you're not adding any other seasonings, it's key. The cilantro adds brightness, which we all enjoyed. Will make again.

Almost like my mom use to make. Very tender and juicy. A great filling for shells, wraps or nachos.

This was fantastic! I could not believe how absolutely moist and tender the meat was. This is definitely a keeper!!! Thanks so much for sharing the recipe with us.

Really liked this recipe, even the kids liked it. Added both Kosher and Garlic Salts to water while boiling. Substituted can of green chiles for green pepper. Used regular red salsa instead of the green, and I skipped the cilantro because I forgot at the store, but think it would be a nice addition. Really tasty.
