Sweet Pork Enchiladas
Ingredients:
- 2 lbs pork tenderloin
- 6-8 tortillas (for the best tortillas, get the fresh ones from Costco)
- cheese
- 1 1/2 cans of Coca-Cola (the real thing, not diet)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 7 oz. can of chilies in adobe sauce
- 1 tsp. dry mustard
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp garlic
- 8 oz. can of diced green chilies
- 2, 12 oz. bottles of green taco sauce
- 1/2 c. brown sugar
Directions:
1. Prepare the marinade the night before. Combine in blender the following:
- Coke
- granulated sugar
- adobe sauce (do not include chilies unless you really like spicy food)
- mustard, cumin and garlic
2. Pour marinade over pork and marinade overnight.
3. Place pork in crockpot and cook on low for 8 hours.
4. After pork is tender (pulls apart easily), shredded pork and combine with green chilies, brown sugar and 1 bottle of green taco sauce.
***at this point you can have a taco bar and serve pork tacos, or continue on and make enchiladas
5. Pour a small amount of green taco sauce in bottom of baking dish (just enough to coat/prevent sticking). Place spoonful of pork in cooked Costco tortillas and continue until pan is full.
6. Pour remaining bottle of green taco sauce over enchiladas and top with cheese. Cook until cheese is melted.
7. Serve with sour cream or cilantro-lime ranch dressing (Aaron's preference)

Kimber Hawkins (Recipe from Brittney Papa)
I always make the dressing with these enchiladas. For just my family I usually use a third of the recipe and it makes more than enough. The enchiladas are time consuming but super easy to make and not to mention SO GOOD! Got these recipes from my friend Brit Papa. She is amazing.
