SWEET PORK BARBACOA (YET ANOTHER CAFE RIO COPYCAT)



Sweet Pork Barbacoa (Yet Another Cafe Rio Copycat) image

It's been such a long time since I enjoyed a meal at Cafe Rio, I honestly can't remember if this even resembles the sweet pork there. However, it is very tasty and great for a crowd.

Provided by librariangirl

Categories     Pork

Time 10h20m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 lbs pork roast
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 -2 garlic clove, pressed
1 1/2-2 cups brown sugar, packed
2 teaspoons cumin
2 cups Coke
2 tablespoons molasses
1/2 teaspoon salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Spray crock pot with Pam and place pork roast inside. Mix remaining ingredients until sugar has dissolved. Pour over roast and cook on low until pork can be shredded with a fork (8-10 hours). The finished meat/liquid mixture can be frozen for later use.
  • My favorite way to put this meal together is as follows: make a bed of delicious cilantro lime rice (#310516) on a plate. Top with a scoop of black beans and a scoop of sweet pork. Cover with romaine lettuce and drizzle with equal parts Ranch dressing and salsa verde on top.

CAFE RIO PORK



Cafe Rio Pork image

Got this recipe from someone who "claims" it is the recipe they use in the restaurant. I am not sure if it is, but it is definitely tasty!

Provided by ccbayly

Categories     Pork

Time 8h10m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 lbs pork loin (approx)
18 ounces Coca-Cola Classic (not diet)
1 cup sugar
1 (7 ounce) can chipotle chiles in adobo
1 teaspoon ground mustard, dry (heaping)
1 teaspoon garlic, minced

Steps:

  • Remove Chilies from the can of adobo sauce.

  • Pour over pork in crock pot.
  • Cook on low for 7-9 hours until it pulls apart easily. After cooking, shred with forks.
