Sweet Pork Burrito's

I think this is about as close to Costa Vida as I'll ever get. It was still really yummy!

2-3 lb pork roast
1 (12 oz) can of soda (I used diet coke)
1 tsp minced garlic
1 pinch ground cumin
1-1/2 cups brown sugar
2 packets enchilada sauce mix

::Prepare enchilada sauce as directed on package
::Meanwhile put roast, soda, garlic & cumin in crock-pot
::Mix brown sugar into the enchilada sauce and pour over roast
::Cook on low for 8 hours
::30 minutes before serving, shred the pork with two forks, drain all but maybe 1 or 2 cups of the sauce and let the meat soak in the rest of the sauce.

Next time I may even refrigerate half of the sauce and add it towards the end of the cooking time so it has a little more flavor. But this was an excellent sweet pork.

I served in whole wheat tortillas with Mexican style rice. YUM!
