Beirdneau Mexican Pork

Brent and I made up this recipe one day. After trying LOTS of cafe rio recipes and being disappointed, we just wanted a mexican pulled pork. Surprisingly this tastes a lot like cafe rio's to me. But I am not going to claim it as a cafe rio knock off. It is just mexican pulled pork that you can eat in burritos, salads etc..

Sorry if the recipe is rather vague.

Ingredients

1 pork roast 
2 cups of coke
BBQ spice rub

Sauce: 
1/2 c apple cider vinegar
1 c ketchup
1/2 c brown sugar
1/2 c diced onion, or, 1/4 dried onion
1 tsp worcestershire sauce
1 Tb chili powder

1. Trim off any excess fat from pork roast, and place in crock pot. Pour enough coke on top so that it covers half of the height of the roast (around 2 cups). Generously sprinkle BBQ spice rub on top till it is completely covered. 

2. Cook roast 6-8 hours on low, or until roast can be shredded easily.

3. Shred roast and reserve juices.

4. Put shredded pork back into crock pot

5. Make sauce by combining all sauce ingredients in sauce pan. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 3-4 minutes.

6. Pour sauce over shredded pork. Add reserved juices so that pork is moist and juicy.

Enjoy!
(hope this recipe makes some sense. I just sorta make it, no exact recipe!)
