I don't know how people are saying that this is too spicy. My DH didn't think this was spicy at all. I tried a taste and didn't get any heat. The flavor was good though, but not a "WOW" like I was hoping for.

    My husband and I loved this recipe. The meat was sooooo tender and juicy. It had great flavor. I did add a lot more cumin only because we love cumin. But other than that, I did stick to the recipe as it was stated. Thanks for sharing!!

    I used a pork loin roast, and didn't add the chipotles because I wanted to make it mild this time. We served it on tortillas with cilantro and sour cream. It was delicious - very moist, tender and well seasoned. I will try it with chipotles next time for a spicier version.

    This was fabulous! I made it while camping and we couldn't stop eating it. When I first tasted it, I thought it was going to be too hot but once you got the first bite down, it was perfect!
