Cafe Rio Sweet Pork

I have been making this a lot lately. It is really yummy!!!

2lbs. Pork Roast
2 cans Coke (not diet)
1/2c. Brown Sugar
1/2tsp. Garlic Salt
1/4c. Water
1 (4oz.) can Diced Green Chilies
1 (10oz.) can Enchilada Sauce (I use the green)
1c. Brown Sugar

Put the pork in a reclosable bag to marinate, pour in one can can of Coke and 1/2 c. brown sugar. Marinade for a few hours or overnight. (i've done both....they both work)
Drain marinade and put pork, 1/2 can of Coke, water, and garlic salt in crock pot on high for about 3-4 hours. Remove pork from crock pot, drain off liquid , shred pork.
Mix together (ina bowl or in blender) other 1/2 can of Coke, can of chilies, enchilada sauce and brown sugar.
Put shredded pork back in the crock pot, cover with sauce, heat until just warmed through.


To make a Cafe Rio style salad, you need:
  • Flour tortilla
  • Shredded chedder cheese
  • Cilantro Lime Rice
  • Black or Pinto beans
  • Cafe Rio Sweet Pork or Chicken
  • Romaine Lettuce
  • Pico De Gallo
