I know there are lots of versions of this recipe- here's mine.
4 lb pork roast (boneless, shoulder or butt roast)
5 cans tomato sauce
3 tsp. garlic
1 ½- 3 cups brown sugar— (I use 2)
4 tsp cumin
4 cups Dr. Pepper
2-4 Tbsp. molasses— (I use 2)
Mix everything and pour over roast. Cook on low in crockpot 6-7 hours. Shred meat and continue cooking in sauce another hour on low. Keep warm until served. Put on salad or in burritos or enchiladas.
If you're making it into a salad, you've got to have the right dressing!
Creamy Tomatillo Dressing
3 fresh tomatillos, husked, washed and cut into quarters
1 pkg Buttermilk Ranch Dressing Mix
I cup Mayo
1/3 to ½ cup buttermilk
1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
2 garlic cloves, crushed
¼ tsp crushed or ground cayenne pepper
Fresh lime juice to taste, 1-3 Tbsp (about 1 lime)
Cumin (a couple of sprinkles)
Green Tabasco sauce (2-4 drops)
Sugar (1-4 spoonfuls)
*Combine all ingredients in a blender. The amount of buttermilk you add depends on how thick you want the dressing. The last four ingredients are all based on your personal taste. Add more or less depending on what you want. Refrigerate at least 1 hour to let flavors blend.
