    Prep time is about 30-45 minutes throughout the entire process. Cooking time on low is 10 hours. Cooking time on high 5 hours.

  2. 2

    Put the pork in a heavy duty ziploc bag to marinade. Add about a can and a half of coke and about 1/4 cup brown sugar. Marinade for a few hours or overnight.

  3. 3

    Drain marinade and put port, 1/2 can of coke, water, and garlic salt in crock pot on high for about 3-4 hours (or until it shreds easily, but don't let it get TOO dry) or on low for 8 hours. Remove pork from crock pot and drain any liquid left in the pot. Shred pork

  4. 4

    In a food processor or blender, blend 1/2 can coke, chilies, enchilada sauce and remaining brown sugar (about a cup, you can add a little more or less to taste). If it looks too thick, add more Coke little by little.

  5. 5

    Put shredded pork and sauce in crock pot and cook on low for 2 hours.
