Slow Cooker Shredded Venison for Tacos

SUBMITTED BY: SEEsign 

"I use a venison roast with taco seasonings to make shredded venison tacos. It's a great alternative to beef and my family just loves them. Serve with the taco shells, lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese, taco sauce and anything else you like on your tacos."
