Beef Barbacoa

Now load this up with lettuce, salsa, avocado, whatever you like!
This is pretty easy and very yummy. Good on tacos, over rice, on taco salad or nachos...

3-4 lb roast, sprinkled with a teaspoon of salt
Sauce:
1 cup chicken broth (or juice from meat)
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup lime juice
1/4 cup honey
4 chipotle peppers (canned...save the rest in the freezer for next time)
1 tablespoon adobo sauce (from the can of chilies)
6 garlic cloves
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1 tablespoon oregano
4 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon pepper
Salt to taste

Cook the roast in a slow cooker on low for about 7 hours (5 hours on high?). Blend all the sauce ingredients together in a blender.   Pour off the beef juices and shred the meat. Pour the sauce over the shredded meat and continue cooking on low for another hour. Add salt if needed.
