Some of our favorites are salsa meat. Love using vinison or pork with a big jar of your favorite salsa. About an hour before I serve it I add some rice to it and the rice sucks up some of the liquid from cooking. Also love pork carnitas.
Hi Eve23- I would love to get your pork carnitas recipe!0 -
Some great ideas in here! Guess I'll be pulling out my crock pot a little more often0 -
