This has become a staple in our home. We absolutely LOVE this pork. There is a restaurant chain here in Utah called Costa Vida and this is as close as we have come to replicating the sweet pork they make there for the burritos/salads/etc.

kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a skillet over high heat--we prefer to use Cast-Iron for searing, so if you have one, use it.

  • Toss the seared Roast in your crock-pot.
  • sprinkle the Brown Sugar over the roast and then dump the salsa over the top of that.
