  2. Coat all sides with chipotle chili seasoning, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Using your hands, with gloves, to make sure the seasonings are rubbed into the meat. 
  3. Pour in the tequila (be as generous as you wish!), drizzle over the honey and lime juice. Top with half of the cilantro.
  4. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4 hours.
