Ramblings of a Perpetually Tanned Filipina

I was feeling a little experimental tonight after I saw my friend's photos on food which included this recipe. She had pork instead of beef though. My husband likes beef, so I got beef instead of pork and just kept my fingers crossed while I placed everything in the crockpot. Whoever invented the crockpot is a GENIUS!!! The meat was so tender that it was falling off the bone and the flavor was also absorbed by the meat.

So I went ahead and checked the site, checked other reviews too, and surprisingly, all of the people who used it liked it and even recommended it. Unlike
