Awesome Pork Barbacoa Burrito's


If meat could possibly taste like candy, this is the recipe to do it...

Use this to make aweome Burrito's Cafe Rio Style) or incredible salad, and even the best pulled pork sammy you have ever had.

Get a 5-6 LB pork roast, (Sams Club has a great one) place it in the crock pot. Fill pot with water about an inch from covering it. Sprinkle with tsp salt and quarter an onion for flavor and place on top.  Place lid on crock and  cook on low for about 6 hours.
  In a separate bowl mix together, 1 3/4 cans Dr. Pepper (NOT DIET) 1 cup brown sugar, 3/4 cup sugar, 1 ounce Chipotle sauce (Any store will have it) 1 TBLS minced garlic, 1 cup taco sauce (or finely chopped salsa) 1 tsp dry mustard  1 tsp Cumin. (Taco seasoning will work)

Drain liquid from crock pot and SAVE. Set aside. Throw onions away. Pour bowl mixture over the pork roast then shred the roast using two forks. Let the sauce soak right in. Cook this shtredded delight for about 2 hours covered.

Green sauce
Take the liquid drippings and place in stock pot. Pour in 1 large can (Quart) of green enchilada sauce. bring to slow boil and add 3 TBLS corn starch mixed with 1 cup water. Stir in and this will thicken. Do not burn.

To make burrito's,  slightly warm a large flour tortilla. Add some mexican rice (Store brand is fine) Black beans (Canned are fine) and Barbacoa pork. Add cheese, green sauce and roll. Cover burrito "enchilada" style with more green sauce.  Guacamole and sour cream are optional.

For salad, Chop fresh Romaine lettuce, add mexican rice, barbacoa pork, and tortilla strips. Cheddar cheese on top, with guacamole and some Pico de Gallo.

For Pork sammy, place pork on soft roll, add cheddar cheese, light mayo and slice of tomato.
