Stop buying those frozen store bought taquitos. Once you try these, you will never buy those again. They are so delicious! These are my favorite taquitos ever. I even prefer them over any Mexican restaurant...they are that good! This recipe will make about 30-40 taquitos, so make sure to portion out your extra beef you dont use and freeze it. Then, the next time you want to make them, defrost the cooked meat and you can make them fairly quickly.
Ingredients:
2-3 pound Chuck Roast
1 packet Lipton Beefy Onion Soup (not onion, BEEFY onion)
Liquid Smoke Flavoring
Seasoning Salt (ex Lawry's Salt)
Garlic Salt
Worchestershire Sauce
Corn Tortillas (I prefer White corn)
Oil
Directions:
Lay out a strip of tin foil and place the roast on it. Pour a generous amount of seasoning salt, garlic salt, liquid smoke, and worchestershire sauce all over the top of the roast. Then pour the entire beefy onion packet on the top of the roast. Wrap the meat with the foil. Wrap it in 5 more layers of foil in different directions. Place in a 9x13 dish. Bake at 150 or 170 and cook for 24 hours.
After the meat has cooked for 24 hours, shred it with a fork to make into shredded beef.
Pour about an inch of oil into a pan and heat over medium-high heat. After it is heated, place a corn tortilla in it. After just a moment, flip it and then take it out of the oil. You only want it in the oil enough time to make it pliable. Do this for the however many tortillas you are going to use. Let the tortillas cool a few minutes enough to handle.
Put one tortilla on a baking sheet. Put a small amount of the shredded beef in a row on one of the sides of the tortillas. Roll up the tortilla around the beef tightly. Make sure the open end is underneath the taquito so it doesn't unroll during baking. (if you are nervous about them unrolling, feel free to stick a toothpick in it to hold them in place) Continue doing this for the remaining tortillas.
Bake in the oven at 350 for 30-45 minutes until they start crisping. Serve with guacamole, cheese, and lettuce.

Looks delish! One question...can I prepare the beef in a crockpot?
I have never done it like that before, but I am sure you probably could! I would probably cook it on low for 8-10 hours. Let me know if you try it and how it works for you!
Can't wait to try it. My family loves anything Mexican!
I made these for dinner last night... SO good! Thank you!
