We really enjoyed this recipe. We used butter lettuce (aka Boston Bibb). It worked perfectly.

This was really good. I wasn't sure how to do the lettuce "cups," so I just used large romaine leaves and made "boats." I had to make a little extra of the sauce that the meat goes into at the end. Then I just shredded the meat with two forks. The whole family really liked it. We'll be making it again soon!
