EASY SLOW-COOKER CHICKEN ROPA VIEJA
When discussing various methods of cooking ropas, a friend of mine told me her sister adds apple juice. I thought a Granny Smith apple might give the dish an extra kick-and it does. The ropas may also be served with hominy or tortillas, but I think the plantains add a special touch. -Arlene Erlbach, Morton Grove, Illinois

LA NUEVA ROPA VIEJA (CROCK POT)
I found this recipe in our local newspaper. It is an easy crock pot version the Cuban Ropa Vieja which requires several hours of simmering on the stove top. This dish is essentially a stew and will be wonderful served with a side salad, corn muffins or tortillas and rice. NOTE: Sirloin steak or chuck roast can be used instead of the skirt or flank steak called for in the ingredients list. the exact seasonings for the canned diced tomatoes doesn't matter as long as you choose a type that includes garlic. Petite diced tomatoes and no-salt added varieties also work.

CROCK POT ROPA VIEJA
I've seen this a few places around the internet...I think it originally came from a "women's magazine," but I've been unable to locate the original. It was given to me by a Cuban friend, whose Abuela declared "my" Ropa Vieja, "Oh! Just as good as home!" That's what I call success! I like it served with rice and black beans, nopales, cabbage slaw and fried ripe plantains on the side, but it also works very well in tortillas with the regular American taco fixings. The recipe calls for skirt steak, but I've also had great results with flank steak, shoulder steak, tri-tip, chuck...anything lean and tough and cheap. The long low cooking will melt all the collagen and give you moist, tender meat no matter how tough it starts out.
