Cafe Rio Salad


I pulled back some of the lettuce so you could see the different layers.

Sweet and Spicy Shredded Pork


3-4 lb. pork roast (I used chicken)
1 large can El Pato Sauce
1 small can tomato sauce
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup coca cola

Cut the roast into chunks and place in crockpot. Mix the rest of the ingredients in a bowl and pour about half over the pork, reserving the rest. Cover pork and cook on high for about 4-5 hours. Remove pork and shred. Discard sauce and wipe out crock pot. Put shredded pork back into crock pot and pour remaining sauce over it. Cook on low for another 2 hours. (The chicken cooked a little faster).


Serve Cafe Rio burrito style (or salad style): Melt monterey jack cheese on tortilla (try my tortilla recipe), top with rice, black or pinto beans, pork and tomatillo dressing. Fold and top with guacamole, lettuce, pico de gallo, etc.
