Barbacoa Pork Salad

I have lots of different recipes that I use to make this salad it just depends on the mood that I am in.

You will just have to try them all and see which one you like best.

These recipes make enough meat to make 25 salads, so usually I will make it and divide into portions my family will eat and freeze them for another time.  Or I like to make Chimichanga or tiquillos
