Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
To help lower fat; When taking the meat out to shred it, pour the cooled juices into a gallon size Ziploc bag. Allow the juice and fat to separate. Once separated, cut a small hole in the bag while holding it over the crock pot, allowing the fat and juices to separate. Drain the juices until the fat reaches the bottom of the bag. At that point throw the bag away.
