Ingredients:
- 1 4-5 pound chuck roast (venison works great too!)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 1/4 cups diced green chile peppers
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp ground cayenne pepper
- 5 oz hot pepper sauce

Instructions:
- Season roast with salt and pepper. Place in crock pot and sprinkle onion over meat. Add remaining ingredients. Pour in enough water to cover 1/3 of the roast.
- Cover and cook on High for 6 hours, then reduce to Low for 2-4 more hours. Meat is done when it is tender enough to fall apart. Shred meat.
