pork redemption

a few days ago elle and i came up with a menu for the week so we could get our fridge stocked and ready for her brother lars to visit. it was decided that on sunday i would to cook the cafe rio pork for burritos. last time i messed it up and i wasn't going to let my rookie mistake happen twice. i started my process last night and cooked the pork for 8hr in my crock pot. i then woke up early so that i could shred and trim the meet before heading off to church. after the trimming and shredding were finished liz and i were off to church. about half way to church (which we were already running late to) i realized that i hadn't turned my crock pot back on after adding the pork and ingredients back in, there goes my great idea of letting the pork cook a few extra hours. it ended up being fine and i just let it cook a little longer this
afternoon. i do have to say that even though i wanted it to cook longer the pork turned out great and i was able to redeem myself on this dish. thank goodness for that, i'm sure liz, punky, elle, lars all appreciated that i didn't make such an armature move this time. we all seemed to really enjoy it so i'm sure i'll be making this again. aslo this picture is for the creamy-tomatillo-dressing that i previously posted the recipe for.
