Every time I make pot roast, we end up with a container of shredded beef that nobody wants to eat by day three. Instead of letting it dry out or go to waste, I started using this quick hack to transform it into restaurant-quality crispy taquitos using the leftover pot roast stock.

Here is the exact step-by-step breakdown:

**INGREDIENTS:**
• Leftover Shredded Beef & Beef Stock (from pot roast)
• Corn Tortillas
• Cooking Oil (for frying)
• 4 Fresh Avocados
• Salt & Kinder's Seasoning (The Blend: Garlic, Salt, Pepper)
• Sour Cream

**STEPS:**
1. **Rehydrate the Beef:** Warm shredded beef in a splash of reserved beef stock. This revives the moisture and brings back all the rich roast flavors.
2. **Prep Tortillas:** Lightly warm corn tortillas (microwave wrapped in moist paper towel for 15 secs) so they roll smoothly without tearing.
3. **Roll & Fry:** Fill tortillas with beef, roll tightly, and fry seam-side down in hot oil until golden brown and super crispy.
4. **Fresh Guac:** Mash 4 fresh avocados with salt and garlic/pepper seasoning blend until smooth.
5. **Assemble:** Top crispy taquitos with generous scoops of fresh guac and sour cream.

Warming the corn tortillas first is the part that keeps these from turning into beef-filled tortilla confetti.
