Ingredients

  • 2 pounds pork (I like to use the pork butt – my butcher concurs)
  • 2 cans Coke (NOT diet)
  • ½ c. brown sugar
  • ½ tsp garlic salt
  • ¼ c. water
  • 1 can diced green chiles
  • ¾ of a 14 oz can enchilada sauce
  • 1 c. brown sugar
  • 2 lbs chicken breasts
  • ½ a small bottle of zesty italian dressing
  • ½ Tbsp. minced garlic
  • 1 pkt ranch dressing mix (mixed with ½ cup of water)
  • ½ Tbsp. chili powder
  • ½ Tbsp. ground cumin
  • 3 lb Chuck Roast
  • 1 Can Green Chile Sauce
  • 1 C Beef Broth
  • 1 Small Can Tomato Sauce
  • 1 T Cumin
  • ½ Onion
  • 3 Cloves of Garlic, Minced
  • 1 cup uncooked rice
  • 1 T oil
  • 1 tsp minced garlic (I use the jarred kind)
  • 1 tsp fresh squeezed lime juice
  • 2 cups water (or chicken broth, leaving out bouillon)
  • 2 tsp chicken bouillon granules (or 2 bouillon cubes)
  • 1 T fresh squeezed lime juice
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 3 T fresh chopped cilantro
  • 1 packet Hidden Valley Ranch salad dressing mix
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2-3 tomatillos, remove husk, cut in ½
  • 1 bunch of fresh cilantro (cut off most of stems)
  • 1 generous tsp of minced garlic
  • juice of 1 lime (I use two!)
  • 1 jalapeno, seeded or not

Directions

  • Put the pork in a reclosable bag to marinate, pour in one of the cans of Coke and ½ c. brown sugar. Marinade for a few hours or overnight.
  • Drain marinade and put pork, ½ can of Coke, water, and garlic salt in crock pot on high for about 3-4 hours. Remove pork from crock pot, drain off liquid, shred pork.
  • Mix together (in a bowl or in the blender) other ½ can of Coke, can of chiles, enchilada sauce and brown sugar.
  • Put shredded pork back in the crock pot, cover with sauce, heat just until warmed through.
  • Place all ingredients in a crock pot. Cook on High 5-6 hours OR on Low 8 hours. Shred with fork and serve in salads, burritos, tacos.
  • Place chuck roast in crock pot, pour green chile sauce, beef broth, & tomato sauce over the top and add cumin & garlic.
  • Cut an onion in half a place full onion rings on top of the roast to flavor.
  • Cook on low for 8-9 hours, or until meat falls apart easily. Shred meat into a different container, strain juices from the crock pot and pour over shredded beef.
  • In a saucepan combine rice, butter, garlic, 1 tsp. lime, chicken broth and water. Bring to a boil.
  • Cover and cook on low 15 minutes, until rice is tender.
  • Remove from heat. In a bowl combine lime juice, sugar and chopped cilantro.
  • Pour over hot cooked rice and mix in as you fluff the rice.
  • Throw it all in the blender and BLEND!
  • Refrigerate.
