Why recepie famous for?

While living away from Texas for a while, my boyfriend and I grew homesick for the spicy flavors of home. We've made this recipe a few times now, and it goes really well with homemade flour tortillas.

Ingredients

1 bottle (12 ounces) beer
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 bay leaf
2 to 3 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons chili powder
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon red wine vinegar
Dash liquid smoke, optional
1 boneless pork shoulder butt roast (3 pounds), cut into 2-inch pieces
2 large unpeeled red potatoes, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
Whole wheat tortillas or hot cooked brown rice, lime wedges and chopped fresh cilantro, optional

Instructions


In a 4- or 5-qt. slow cooker, mix first 13 ingredients and, if desired, liquid smoke. Stir in pork, potatoes and onion. Cook, covered, on low until pork is tender, 7-9 hours.
Discard bay leaf; skim fat from cooking juices. Shred pork slightly with 2 forks. Serve with remaining ingredients as desired.
