Pulled Pork-Cafe Rio style

1 Large onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 can diced green chiles
4 oz+ brown sugar
2 cans Classic Coke
2 T White Vinegar
4 C Ketchup
1 T Olive oil
1 Large pork loin

1. Brown pork loin in all sides in 1 T olive oil on a hot frying pan. Remove and put into a crock pot.
2. Saute onion, garlic, brown sugar and chiles on the same pan. Remove and put aside.
3. Deglace pan with ½ can of Coke. Add rest of the Coke and make syrup by boiling the Coke for about 45 minutes.
4. Add White Vinegar and ketchup to syrup. Cook for 2 minutes, then add the onion mixture, and cook for a few minutes more.
5. Pour the onion-syrup mixture on top of the pork loin. Cook on low for 10 hours.
6. Pull apart the meat, and cook for 2 hours more.

Divide in baggies and put into the freezer for later use. Great on tostadas, tacos etc.
