My family is CRAZY for the sweet pork burritos! Frequently Smiths will have a huge pork loin on sale for half price and it is about $25, When I see these I pick up a couple and throw them in the freezer to use for parties and special occasions. This recipe will feed over 25 people and leave you enough of the pork to freeze for yummy burritos later. Whatever you freeze just double line in 2 ziplock freezer bags, and it will stay good for about 3 months.
Sweet Pork
One large pork loin
3 cans Coke (Regular)
1 1/4 c. brown sugar
Dash of garlic salt
1/4 c. water
1 small can diced green chilis (blended)
1 can red enchilada sauce
Put the pork loin (frozen or unfrozen) inside a large roaster with the about half the coke, the garlic salt, and the water. Cook overnight or until it shreads easily. About 4 hours before you want to eat add the rest of the coke, brown sugar, the enchilada sauce and the green chilis and let it simmer until ready to use. The longer it simmers the better.
Black Beans
3 cans black beans
1 tsp. cumin
1 1/3 c. tomatoe juice
1 1/2 tsp salt
3 cloves of garlic (minced)
1/2 bunch of cilantro (chopped)
Simmer until ready to use.
Cilantro Lime Rice
5 c. raw rice
10 C. water
3 chicken bullion cubes
2 cloves of garlic (minced)
Juice from 1-2 limes
1/2 bunch cilantro (chopped)
Place all ingredients into a rice maker and hit start. Mine usually takes about an hour to cook. You could also do this with Minute Rice and just adjust the rice and water accordingly.
Jalepano Lime Ranch
3-4 c. prepared Ranch (We like the Gregg's Ranch from Costco)
2 Jalepanos with tops removed
Juice of 1-2 limes
1/2 bunch of cilantro
1/2 c. green chili sauce
1 clove garlic (minced)
Place all ingredients in the blender and process until smooth.
***To assemble burritos - take a tortilla, place a scoop of beans and rice on the bottom, top with some pork and then a little shreeded cheese. Roll it up and place it seam side down. Top with Jalepano Ranch, shreeded cheese. We serve it with lettuce and homemade salsa on the side. Enjoy!
Sweet!! I have wanted this recipe:) They were so good when you made them for New Years
