Its time for a recipe ladies and gentlemen. Let me start with my philosophy on recipes, I believe that a recipe should be an outline not an absolute. For instance, if you are spicy food averse than I would recommend removing the jalapeño and reducing the amount of cayenne. Follow the procedure but the ingredients can always change to your liking. This recipe is designed for a pressure cooker to make easy and delicious shredded meat to be used in tacos, burritos, enchiladas, or whatever your heart’s desire.
