Sweet Pork Burritos & Ranch Tomatillo sauce

This recipe is by far one of our family favorites. I do not make it very often because it is high in the calorie area, but it is so so yummy! We love when this is on the menu. I usually plan to make it when we have friends or family coming over for dinner.

I got the recipe from my mom a few years back and have changed it a little bit to fit our liking.


Sweet Pork:
2 1/2 pounds pork loin
salt to taste
pepper to taste
garlic salt to taste
1 package 10ct tortillas
2 -15oz cans mild green chili sauce - I use el pato
1 1/2 cup brown sugar
1- 15oz can black beans
1 bunch of cilantro
2 bags Monterey jack cheese


Place your pork into your slow cooker with 1/3 cup water , Season with pepper, salt & garlic salt. Cook on high for 4 hours or low for 8. Once it is cooked remove from cooker and drain if needed. shred trhe meat, place back into your slow cooker. Add 1/3 cup green chili sauce & brown sugar.
Turn oven on to 350.
pour 1/2 cup green sauce into the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish. Then start to prepare your burritos. place some of your pork down the middle, then add your black beans ( or pinto), a little cilantro & shredded cheese. place the seam down in the dish.
repeat until  all the burritos are assembled. Then pour 1/2 - 2 cups chili sauce over the top & cover with Cheese.
Cover with foil & bake for 25-30 mins, or until cheese melts & burritos are warmed threw.



My Husband also likes Tomatillo dressing to be used on top of the burritos after cooking as an extra sauce. Here is the recipe for that.

Tomatillo sauce:
1 cup mayo
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 package dry hidden valley ranch
2 cloves garlic
2 cups cilantro
3 tomatillos
1jalapeno

Husk & wash tomatillos. place all ingredients in your blender. mix well. place in your fridge until you are going to use it.



Enjoy!!
