Cafe Rio Sweet Pork

Now, nothing can quite be like the original, but this comes pretty close...

3 - lbs pork loin
1- 7oz can chilis in Adobo Sauce (you have to get the adobo sauce ones because you only want the sauce, not the chilis- sometimes you might only find the 12 oz cans)
1 1/2 cans coke (the real stuff- no knock offs or diet)
1 cup sugar
1 heaping teaspoon each ground mustard and ground cumin
1 tsp minced garlic

Put everything in a blender (except for the pork of course). Pick the chilis out of the can of adobo sauce because they will make it way too spicy. Make sure to get as much of the sauce as you can. Whip it up for a minute or two, them pour it over the pork in a crock pot. Cook on low for 7-9 hours. Pull it apart with a fork. We put it over chips with pinto beans, cheese, guacamole, salsa, and sour cream for some fabulous nachos. You can also make burritos or salads. Yummm!
