This is a combination of many recipes I found and put together. It is suppose to be "Cafe Rio" pork, but I really don't think it tastes much like it. But it is sweet and spicy and delicious.
5-6 lb. pork roast
3 cups Dr. Pepper
1 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup white sugar
2 clove garlic, minced
7 oz. can chipotle chilies in adobo sauce
6-ish oz. red taco sauce (I used medium)
2 T dry mustard
7 oz. can chipotle chilies in adobo sauce
6-ish oz. red taco sauce (I used medium)
2 T dry mustard
1 T cumin
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
Mix ingredients (besides pork) until sugar dissolves. I didn’t keep the actual chilies, I dumped the can into a bowl and added enough Dr. Pepper to get all the sauce off of the chilies, then I strained them, and then added the rest of the ingredients. I also rinsed out the can with Dr. Pepper for more adobo goodness. If you LOVE hotness, then blend everything + 2 or 3 chilies in the blender. (Also, the adobo sauce tends to stain plastic, using a glass or metal mixing bowl will make your clean-up of adobo sauce considerably less frustrating).
Add mixture to the roast and cook in crockpot for 8-10 hours. Shred roast into sauce and cook for 2 more hours. At this point the meat was so tender it practically shredded itself.
