One of my favorite restaurants is Costa Vida and their sweet pork is to die for. I have looked everywhere for a similar recipe. Of course Costa Vida won't give out the recipe, but this is close.

SERVES 10 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 (3-5 lb) boneless pork roast
1 cup salsa
1 cup brown sugar, packed

Directions

1
Place ingredients in a greased slow cooker. Cover and cook on LOW heat for 8-10 hours.
2
Shred pork with a fork. Keep lid off after shredding for about 15 minutes so juice will thicken.
3
Use meat in burritos, tacos, or salads.
4
If freezing, keep juice and freeze with meat.

My boyfriend and I made these and we think that they were delicious! The longer you leave them in the slow cooker the more tender and easier to shed they get!

My family loved this...we ate it on flour taco shells with sour cream, onions and shredded cheese. The small amount of leftover meat made a good sandwich also. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe.

Wow - this was easy and delicious. Definitely can't go wrong with a 3 ingredient recipe that you basically don't do anything to for the majority of the day. We served this in tacos and it went over extremely well. I'll definitely be using leftovers for sandwiches and other recipes. Thanks for a keeper!

This pork was so easy to make and sooooo delicious! I used Splenda brown sugar instead of regular to cut back on calories a bit and it turned out to be super moist, sweet and everyone loved it! Fantastic for moms on the go!
