"Cafe Rio" Style Pork


This recipe comes from my friend Heidi Maxfield. Being so far from Cafe Rio - we love making this recipe so we feel like we get a little taste of it from time to time until we can go home and get our real fix!

1 lb pork roast or loin
2 (15 oz) cans tomato sauce
1 1/2 Cups brown sugar
1/4 - 1/2 cilantro, chopped
1 can Coke
1-2 cloves garlic, minced

Combine tomato sauce, brown sugar, cilantro, coke and garlic. Pour over top of pork in crockpot. Cook on high 4-5 hours or low for 7-8 hours. When pork is cooked, remove from crock pot and shred. Put back in sauce. Serve in burritos, enchiladas or in a salad. Once again Brad's favorite is pork nachos.
Also serve with Mexican Lime Rice -
