Hi Dawn, unfortunately, due to contractual obligations with the publisher, I am unable to publish all the recipes online. I’m sorry about that!

I just got your book. 1/2 c Sriracha seems a lot to me. What would suggest for less heat. I am so excited to be doing a taco Tuesday.

Hi Courtney! I’m thrilled you’re going to try this recipe from the book! It’s one of my favorites. If you decide to cut the Sriracha in half, I recommend you also decrease the other sauce ingredients. While it seems like a lot, it’s considered a simmering sauce and left in the slow cooker when you remove the meat from there. It’s not an overly spicy recipe -unless you drizzle additional Sriracha over the top and drench the meat in the liquid.
