SLOW COOKED MEXICAN STYLE SHREDDED FLANK STEAK
I use this delicious tender flank steak for stuffing enchiladas. The taste of the seasoning is quite spicy but oh so good. Nothing is wasted in this dish, the liquid from the stock goes into the oven as sauce for the baked enchiladas. All credit for the seasoning goes to Potsie's recipe for Mucho Gusto Taco Seasoning #199955
