Sweet Pork:
3 lbs boneless pork ribs (We used pork chops and it turned out just fine)
3 cans coke, divided
1 1/4 cups brown sugar, divided
dash garlic salt
1/4 cup water
1 can diced green chiles
3/4 (10 oz) can red enchilada sauce
In a large ziploc bag, combine pork, a can and a half of coke, and 1/4 cup brown sugar. Marinade for a few hours or overnight.
Drain marinade and place pork in crock pot. Add 1/2 can of coke, garlic salt, and 1/4 cup of water. Cook on high for about 3 hours or low for 5-6 hours. Remove meat from crock pot and shred. Drain liquid.
In a food processor or blender, blend together 1/2 can of coke, green chiles, enchilada sauce, and remaining 1 cup brown sugar. Put pork back in crock pot. Cover with sauce. Cook on low heat for 2 hours.
Cilantro-Lime Rice: *see below for how I cooked it for the super easy way*
1 cup uncooked long grain white rice
1 tsp butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp lime juice
1 can (15 oz) chicken broth
1 cup water
1 Tbsp lime juice
2 tsp sugar
3 Tbsp chopped cilantro
*** Cook rice as normal adding lime juice (I used DoTerra Lime oil (3-4 drops)) in water as rice cooks. When rice is done add cilantro and mix it in using a fork***
Combine rice, butter, garlic, lime juice, chicken broth, and water. Bring to a boil; cover and reduce heat to low. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until rice is tender. Remove from heat. Combine remaining 1 Tbsp lime juice, sugar, and cilantro. Pour over rice and mix as you fluff rice.
Garlic Black Beans: *See below for easy way I cooked it*
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp cumin
2 cans black beans, rinsed and drained
1/3 cup tomato juice
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp chopped cilantro
***Take can of Black Beans NOT drained and put in saucepan, Add Garlic, We added some praprika and red pepper flakes (not to much, add little at a time until you get desired spice)
In a small saucepan, combine olive oil, garlic, and cumin. Cook over medium heat until fragrant. Add black beans, tomato juice, and salt. Stir until heated through. Stir in cilantro just before serving.
Take Tortilla and layer pork (try to not put to much of pork sauce inside burrito), beans and rice. Wrap. Smoother with Sweet Pork Sauce and Cheese and put in Microwave until cheese is melted (about 45 sec.)
