Nine-Inch Sawtooth Star

 

Sweet Pork Barbacoa

 

3 pounds pork (I used tenderloin)

36 ounces Coke – NOT diet

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/8 teaspoon garlic salt (I was out, so I used onion salt)

2 cans diced green chilies

10 ounces red enchilada sauce

1 more cup brown sugar (Optional)

 

Put pork in an airtight container with 12 ounces cola and 1/4 cup brown sugar. Seal and allow to marinate a few hours or overnight. Drain marinade and place pork in slow cooker pot with 12 more ounces cola and garlic salt. Cover and cook on high 3 to 4 hours or low 6 to 8 hours. Drain pork again and shred; return to pot. Use blender to puree chilies, enchilada sauce, 12 more ounces cola, and more brown sugar (if desired). Pour into slow cooker. Cover and cook on low another 2 hours. Serve warm over rice, beans, corn tortilla chips, or with flour tortillas. Serves 16.
