This is a family favorite that everyone loves! While we use this sweet pork for enchiladas in this recipe – you can easily adapt this to tacos, nachos, salads, etc.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 3 – 4 lb pork roast (or tenderloin)
  • 1 bottle taco sauce (I use 2 cans el pato)
  • 1 package taco seasoning
  • 1 T cumin
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 can Coke
  • 12 count soft taco flour tortillas
  • 1 bag Mexican cheese blend
  • 1 can enchilada sauce (to serve with)

DIRECTIONS (to cook the meat):

  • Cover roast half way with water in crock pot
  • Cook for about 6 hours (on low)
  • Drain water
  • Shred pork with forks, place it back in the crock pot and add in ingredients together with pork
  • Cook another 2 – 3 hours (on low) **Don’t be afraid to add more to any of these ingredients if you wish to give the pork more flavor.**
  • TO FREEZE:
    • Fill each tortilla with an even amount of sweet pork and add your preference of cheese.
    • Wrap tortilla to form an enchilada and transfer to Ziplock bag to freeze.
    • You will fill your Ziplock bag with the DRY enchiladas, label and freeze.
  • TO SERVE:
    • Remove your frozen enchiladas. In a casserole dish, spray the bottom of the pan with non-stick cooking spray.
    • Transfer enchiladas to the casserole dish.
    • Cover with enchilada sauce of choice and Mexican cheese.
    • Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until cheese is melted and slightly browned.
    • Serve with rice, beans or side salad.
