Sweet Pork and Dressing

Sweet Pork (I love Lisa's version, this is just another variety)


3-5 lb Pork loin or pork roast

1 1/2 cans coke classic

1 C. sugar

7oz can chipotle chilies in adobo sauce - provides some heat

1 tsp dry ground mustard

1 tsp cumin

1 tsp minced garlic


Remove chilies (throw chilies away) from adobo sauce and add all ingredients except pork in a blender. Rinse can of adobo sauce with coke to get all the sauce out. Blend in blender until well mixed. Place in crock pot and pour sauce over it. Cook for 4-6 hours on high or 7-9 hours on low. Carefully turn roast over halfway through. Cook in sauce until pull apart tender and shred. Serve over rice, on a salad, or in a tortilla/enchilada.


Creamy cilantro-tomatillo dressing


1 envelope buttermilk ranch dressing

1 C. mayo

1 C. milk

1/2 bunch cilantro (I don't use this much because I am not a cilantro fan)

2 tomatillos

1/2 serrano chili pepper with seeds removed

Blend in blender, let sit to thicken

Dressing gets a bit spicier after sits in fridge. No worries Karyn, not too spicy though!
