1. SEARING THE MEAT: Take the beef chuck roast and using a small paring knife, make 3 small 'x' marks into the meat. Take 3 cloves of garlic and insert them into the 3 'x' marks so that the clove is completely inserted into the thickness of roast. Season both sides of the meat with a pinch of salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large, deep skillet. Add the beef in one piece and fry on each side for 5 minutes, turning only when the exterior is browned. This will splatter a bit but don't cover the pan as the meat will end up steaming rather than searing.
2. FOR THE ROPA VIEJA: Chop the remaining 3 cloves of garlic into thin slices and add to the slow cooker along with all the remaining ropa vieja ingredients. I used a 6-quart slow cooker but a 3-quart slow cooker will work too. Cover and let cook on the low setting for 7-8 hours. When the beef falls apart easily when pulled with two forks, it's done. Shred the beef with the forks and give it a stir. Taste for seasonings, season with additional salt and pepper as desired.
3. TO SERVE: Serve over a bed of rice with cuban-style black beans on the side topped with additional cilantro and a few lime wedges. You can also use the shredded beef for burritos, breakfast quesadillas, or tacos! The possibilities are endless!

1. Season meat: Season the flank steak generously with Sazon, salt and pepper.
2. Brown meat (optional but recommended): Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches if necessary to not overcrowd the pan, add the flank steak in a single layer. Sear until well browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer the meat to the slow cooker.
3. Place ingredients in slow cooker: Layer the onions, bell peppers and garlic on top of the meat. Add the bay leaf, crushed tomatoes, stock, tomato paste, vinegar, cumin and oregano. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
4. Cook: Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 7-8 hours (or HIGH for 4 hours*), or until meat can easily be shredded. Remove bay leaf and discard.
