Homemade Cafe Rio Pork Barbacoa
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Serving Size: 15

Ingredients:

3 pounds  boneless pork sirloin roast
16  ounces chunky salsa, (Pace bottle-can puree if you don't like chunky)
1 12-ounce cans coke (or cola)
2 cups brown sugar

Directions:

Place pork in crock pot and add some water. Cook on high for 4 hours. Drain water. Cut pork into thirds then add the mixed sauce ingredients and pour on top of pork. Cook 4 more hours on low until you can shred the pork easily. (can remove the pork and shred if desired and then put back into the sauce)
NOTES: For girls camp I made 3x the recipe. I also added 2 more pounds of pork because there was so much sauce (for a total of 11 pounds) I pre made the pork and put it all into a food saver bag. Sealed it and froze it to take to camp. Then I thawed it at camp and threw it into a pot to warm up and serve. BIG HIT! Had enough to serve 48.

Since it does make a lot of sauce you could add more pork easily up to 3-5 more pounds and not have a problem.
