Place the roast in a slow cooker, sprinkle with onion soup mix. Cook overnight, until tender and falls apart easily. Shred the roast with a fork.
Soften the tortillas in hot vegetable oil. Place about 2 Tablespoons of shredded beef on the tortilla, roll tightly and secure with a toothpick. (At this point you can freeze taquitos to fry later). Fry taquitos in hot oil. Salt to taste.
