Instructions
Cut meat in 2-inch pieces.
Place chopped onion in a 4- to 5-quart slow cooker. Top with meat.
Combine the 1 can undrained stewed tomatoes, the green chiles, garlic, cumin, oregano and cayenne pepper in a medium bowl.
Pour over meat in slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 10 to 12 hours or on high for 5 to 6 hours.
Using tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer meat to a large bowl. Use two forks to pull meat apart into coarse shreds. If desired, drizzle meat with a little cooking liquid to moisten (discard remaining liquid). Cover to keep warm.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add bell peppers and onion wedges. Cook and stir for 4 to 5 minutes or until tender and starting to brown. Stir in the remaining can stewed tomatoes; heat through.
Spoon about 1/2 cup meat** and 1/2 cup pepper mixture onto one side of each warmed tortilla. Fold tortilla in half over filling. Top with sour cream, guacamole and salsa.
Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Riesling, Sparkling Rose
Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Sparkling rosé are my top picks for Mexican. Acidic white wines like riesling or low-tannin reds like pinot noir can work well with Mexican dishes. Sparkling rosé is a safe pairing too. The Dragonette Cellars Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 45 dollars per bottle.

Dragonette Cellars Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir
2016 was another in a string of terrific vintages in Santa Barbara. We had another early budbreak, and (unlike 2015) perfect weather during set, allowing for a strong, balanced crop. May, June and July were quite warm and ripening was fairly quick; however, an unseasonably cool August slowed the vines considerably. For the winemaker it was almost ideal, as the grapes were able to complete ripening slowly, without heat spikes, and the grapes maintained excellent acidity. Over a series of cool mornings, we picked each block at near perfect ripeness and balance. The wines appear to have great fruit character, fresh acidity and tannic structure and solid depth.
