As usual, it's been a busy week and any recipe that can be done in the slow cooker is always a winner. Eating for Idiots Barbacoa is one of my go to recipes. It's fast, easy, and packs a ton of flavor in each bite. FABULOUS recipe. Plus, it helps satisfy that craving for Mexican I miss so much.
The first part of the recipe is quite easy: just put all the ingredients in a food processor. You end up with something that looks like the photo below. It's a salsa-like consistency and if you have a little taste--it's a flavor bomb in your mouth. I could stop right here dipping plantain chips in this little mixture and be completely content.
