Mexican Coca Cola Pulled Pork Recipe 48

Steps:

• Place roast in a 5 quart crock pot. Season with garlic, onion, black pepper and cayenne pepper. Add liquid smoke and pour in Coca-Cola until it reaches nearly the top of the roast (or covers it depending on the cut of meat).
• Set Crock Pot on low heat and cook for 8-10 hours.
• When ready to serve, remove roast from Crock Pot to a platter. Remove any bones and trim all fat. With a fork, begin "pulling" pork apart into thin shreds. Add barbecue sauce and fold into meat.
• Serve pulled pork on a burger bun or on its own.
• Note: If preparing this dish for a potluck, pour 1 cup of Crock Pot liquid into a measuring cup and discard the remainder. Then return pulled pork to Crock Pot, set on warm or low heat setting, add 1/2 cup of reserved liquid (to keep the meat from drying out) and cover until ready to serve. If the meat is in the Crock Pot for more than one hour, add more liquid as needed for moisture.

Steps:

• place the onions in the crock pot. Place the pork on top of the onions. Add the garlic, serrano, mustard, red chili, vinegar, soy and worchestershire. Pour the cola over all and give a stir to combine. Cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-7. Remove the pork chunks with tongs onto a large plate or pan. Shred with 2 forks. Return the pork to the crock and season with salt and pepper to taste. Add more kick if you want. Stir in more chopped fresh serrano or jalepeno, or red chili flakes if you like it spicier. Continue to cook for another hour.

Steps:

• Rub the roast with salt and pepper then place it in the crockpot.
• Add soup mix and coke.
• Cook on low 8 hours or high for 4.
• Before serving dump liquid from crockpot into a pot.
• Skim fat.
• To the remaining juices add salt and pepper to taste and a dash of Kitchen Bouquet.
• Bring mixture to a boil.
• Remove a cup of the liquid and add corn starch to thicken.
• Add corn starch mixture to the rest of the juices.
• Cook until it reaches desired consistency.
• WONDERFUL GRAVY!

Steps:

• Slice one onion and place in crock pot.
• Put in the roast and cover with the other onion, sliced. Pour over the ginger ale. Cover and cook on LOW for about 12 hours. See Note2 below regarding amount of time needed!
• Remove the meat, strain and save the onions, discard all liquid. With two forks, shred the meat, discarding any remaining fat, bones or skin. Most of the fat will have melted away.
• Return the shredded meat and the onions to the crock pot, stir in the barbecue sauce. Continue to cook for another 4 to 6 hours on LOW.
• Serve with hamburger buns or rolls and additional barbecue sauce. Any leftovers freeze very well.
• TIP: freeze ready-made sandwiches - a scoop of meat on a bun, well-wrapped. These make a great quick meal or snack. To reheat, remove wrapping, wrap in a paper towel, and zap 1-2 minute in the microwave.
• Note: Shoulder or butt are recommended because the meat shreds very well. Other cuts do not shred as readily. It is a fattier cut, but the fat melts away in the cooking and is poured away when you discard the liquid.
• Note 2: I have an older, smaller crock pot. The above times work perfectly for me. But if you have a newer or bigger crock pot, you may need to revise times downward, esp. after the bbq sauce is added. I think you need at least a couple of hours for it all to meld, but that may be all you need. Update: I recently bought a bigger crockpot, I think 5 or 6 qts. I cooked a 6 lb pork shoulder in it for 8 hours and it was shreddable at that point. Shredded, added the sauce, and cooked for another hour or so to meld everything. So use your best judgment on timing!
• Note3: You might want to turn your roast over after it's cooked a while, to ensure more even cooking. I think this may depend on the size and shape of your roast and the size of your slow cooker. Remember that each time you remove the lid you lose heat and be careful, as turning a large piece of meat is awkward.
• Note4: my sister says this takes 2 hours in the Instapot. I don't have one, up to you to figure out the steps.

Steps:

• Heat oil in large pan until hot.
• Add pork, stir until browned.
• Add onion, garlic and chilies, cook and stir until onions are tender.
• Add all spices and stir.
• Add enough water to just cover meat.
• Put in crock-pot on Hi for 6-8 hours until meat shreds. (You can help it by pulling meat apart with forks or by pressing meat onto side of pan when almost done.).
• If not using crock-pot, simmer on top of stove on low heat for 3-4 hours until meat shreds, adding more water if needed to prevent sticking.
• Serve with taco shells or as burritos with beans, sour cream, guacamole, etc.

Steps:

• Brown the pork chops on both sides and drain.
• Remove from pan.
• Slice onions and fry lightly.
• Remove from pan.
• Pour Coke and other ingredients in the skillet.
• Add pork chops and onions back into the skillet.
• Simmer on low with a lid for 30-45 minutes until liquid is evaporated and a thickened sauce has formed.

Steps:

• Place pork, 1/2 cup water, vinegar, and salt in a large saucepan. Simmer, covered, until all the liquid has cooked off and the pork cooks in its own rendered fat, 45 to 50 minutes. Add lard if there is not enough fat, so pork cooks to a golden brown. Set aside.
• Place the guajillo and ancho chiles in a small saucepan with 1 cup water. Cover and cook over low heat for 10 minutes. Transfer to a blender and add parsley, garlic, oregano, and cumin; puree.
• Add the pureed mixture to the pork. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer, covered, until the pork is tender and can easily be cut with a fork, about 1 hour. It may be necessary to add another cup of water to the pan, depending on the tenderness of the meat.
• Let pork rest for 15 minutes. Shred with 2 forks.

Steps:

• To make basting mixture, pour Coca Cola in a saucepan with chopped onions and peppers, and 1 tablespoon of Montreal Chicken Seasoning.
• Bring your mixture to a boil. Stir gently while boiling for about 2 minutes.
• Cover and simmer your basting mixture for about 30 minutes until it gets a bit syrupy.
• When your basting mixture is ready, wash your pork loin, then sprinkle it with Montreal Chicken Seasoning, rubbing it on all sides.
• Set your oven at 400 degrees. Layer the bottom of your roasting pan with tin foil to protect your pan's surface.
• Place your pork loin on a rack over the tin foil in your roasting pan
• Using a large stirring spoon, carefully pour some of your basting mixture with onions and peppers over your pork loin.
• Allow your basting mixture to continue to simmer while basting your pork loin about every 15 minutes.
• Roast your pork loin for about 75 minutes or until cooked to 160 degrees internally (use a meat thermometer to measure).
• When done, remove your pork loin from the oven, place on a serving dish, and pour the remainder of your basting mixture over it.
• Serve with vegetables of your choice. Try to be humble as your guests compliment you on the outstanding savory and juicy flavor of your pork loin.
