6 lbs of pork (I cook it for 10 hours on low in the crock-pot with 1 can of Dr Pepper or Coke, 1/2 cup of water and some salt and pepper the day before I need it. Then I put it in the fridge.)
Next Day:
Turn crock-pot back on low, shred meat then drain off extra juices. Let the meat just sit while...
In a saucepan, mix:
12 oz of taco sauce (Not salsa)
24 oz Mexi Coke (Coke in a bottle -on the Hispanic aisle) or just 2 sodas
1 cup Brown Sugar
3/4 cup White Sugar
4 cloves of garlic, mashed or minced
1 tsp of dry mustard
7oz can of chipotles in adobo sauce (If you want to make it hot you can use the chilies.
but they may add a surprising amount of heat.)
Bring to a simmer and then pour over meat and let it go until you're ready.It can't get "too done". I usually let it go for at least two hours. It's even better the next day and the next. It makes A LOT.
Serve with:
Large Fresh Flour Tortilla (I get mine at Costco)
Cheese, Rice and Black or Pinto Beans, Crisp Romaine Lettuce, Guacamole, Tortilla Strips, and Creamy Tamatillo Salad Dressing.
