Not Cafe Rio Pork... but very delicious!!

Credit: Lynn Muir

Ingredients:
  • 1 pork roast, boneless, unseasoned
  • 3 c salsa of choice (I've heard that mango salsa is great, but we just use Pace)
  • 2 c brown sugar

Directions:
  1. Place pork roast in the crockpot on LOW with the fatty side up.
  2. Cover all of the meat with salsa and brown sugar. Note: This is not science, so go ahead and add more salsa or water if needed while cooking, and feel free to add more brown sugar toward the end to suit your taste buds. :) Place lid on crock pot. You will be cooking this for about 5-6 hours.
  3. After 4 hours, flip the pork roast and spoon the salsa mixture back over the entire roast. Replace the lid.
  4. When the pork is tender (another hour or two later), shred the pork with forks and stir it in with the juices. Let marinate in these juices for about 30 minutes before serving for maximum results.
  5. Serve as burritos or salads Cafe Rio style! Yum!!
