Cafe Rio Pork
1 pork loin (about four pounds, whatever you find)
1 can Dr. Pepper (I prefer Coke normally but Dr. Pepper is better in this I think)
1 cup sugar
2 T. dry mustard powder
1 T. dry cumin powder
2 cloves minced garlic
1 can Chipotle chiles in Adobo Sauce
Then add sugar, mustard, cumin, garlic, and Dr. Pepper. Stir everything and toss in the trimmed, whole pork loin. Try piercing it a few times so the flavor steeps in during cooking. Rotate throughout the day and after about 5 hours on high the meat should be shred-able. Reduce heat to low, pull apart the meat with two forks and leave the lid off the Crockpot for a bit to let some of the extra liquid evaporate and soak into the meat (the longer it cooks shredded the tastier it will be, just watch and make sure there is enough liquid).
Meanwhile, make the dressing in a blender. Serve pork with tortillas, black beans, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, and cilantro dressing. Dish it up and enjoy! I also like topping it with a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Try serving as a burrito or as a salad- both are delish!

4 Tomatillos (throw away the outer peel and quarter)
1/2 Cup Mayo, not Miracle whip
1/2 Cup Milk
1 Packet Ranch Dressing mix
1 bunch of cilantro, washed and stems discarded
1 Lime
Blend all ingredients (except lime) in a blender and let thicken in the fridge. For more spice, add a Serrano pepper. Serve with a squeeze of fresh lime and enjoy.
You must live in Utah (so do I)...or you atleast used to? I LOVE Cafe Rio but haven't tried to make it myself. I love your site!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the awesome recipe...perfect!
ReplyDeleteI substituted ranch dressing for mayo but forgot to skip the mill. Leaving in the milk makes the sauce too runny since the tomatillos are so juicy already. 1 cup ranch dressing should replace the packet, the milk, and the mayo. Half of a jalapeño (remove seeds) is just spicy enough but not nearly as hot as the serrano makes it. Also, the jalapeño has a great flavor.
ReplyDeleteI just tried this recipe for dinner and WOW! Is it ever yummy! Found it on Pinterest. :)
