Cafe Rio Immitation Sweet pork!

This is the very similar to Cafe Rio Sweet pulled pork I hope you enjoy. 
NOTE: This is not the actual recipe, but I can tell you it tastes almost the same. 


Ingredients 

3 -4 lbs pork roast or 3 -4 lbs pork loin
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 onion
2 garlic cloves
Water, to cover 

Sauce 

1 (14 ounce) cans enchilada sauce 
 3/4 cup Dr. Pepper cola 
1 cup brown sugar

Directions

  1. Cut pork in large chunks. Put in large crock pot and add water just to cover. Add seasonings. Cut onion in 4 large pieces, crush garlic and add to water. Cook pork on low all day or on high for 3 to 4 hours, or until tender and pork pulls apart easily. Drain water and remove onions and garlic. Pull pork and return to crock pot.
  2. In a separate container mix enchilada sauce, soda and sugar. Add to pork in the crock pot. Cook 1 hour longer. (Can cook less if you don't have time.).
  3. The pork freezes well and can also be made a day in advance and kept in the fridge.
NOTE: This is the first step.

This is the final product, the meat is shredded and the sauce is mixed in already. It tastes amazing!!!! Enjoy!!!
