Bison Roast - Mexican Style

Felt like making something completely different today, so I threw this recipe together.

Ingredients:
1 grass-fed bison roast (about 3 pounds)
garlic powder
cumin
oregano
onion powder
cinnamon
2 bay leaves
1 1/2 C organic beef broth
1 Tbsp bacon grease

Directions:
Trim fat from sirloin tip (if any at all)

Turn crockpot on to 6-8 hours:
Add beef broth and bay leaf

Add 1 tsp of each of the dry ingredients (garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, cumin) and 1/2 tsp cinnamon in a bowl.  Heat bacon grease in skillet (over medium heat).  Mix dry ingredients together and rub all over roast, covering completely and using all spices.  Place roast in skillet, searing each side for 30 seconds to a minute (tongs are helpful during this). 

Using tongs, place roast in crockpot and cover for 6-8 hours (or until you can easily shred meat with a fork).
