SLOW COOKER CORNED BEEF TACOS



Slow Cooker Corned Beef Tacos image

Feel free to used leftover corned beef. We loved the Guinness beer cream sauce. I made that a day in advance. I did feel it was missing something. So I added a little hot sauce & mustard to the cream sauce. Perfect! But you could use any sauce for these tacos if you don't like the beer flavor. The recipe originally called for 2 bottles of Guinness beer for the meat. I thought one was enough, Use your best judgment. Ihttps://sharedappetite.com/recipes/slow-cooker-corned-beef-tacos/
