I followed your recipe for Sweet Pork like Cafe Rio and added the following to the pork chops as they baked in sealed tinfoil in a dutch oven for 4 hours:
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon powdered allspice
1 teaspoon powdered cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoons ancho chile powder
4 cloves garlic, minced and mashed to a paste
2 tablespoons orange juice
juice from one lime
plus 1/4 cup rasberry vinegar
We topped it with the things they do at Cafe Rio, Cilantro, guacamole, salsa and black beans.
Your dressing is perfect exactly as it is:
2 cups mayonaisse
2 cups sour cream
10 sprigs of cilantro
3 los tomates (green tomatoes-fresh or canned
2 green onions (washed and chopped)
2 cloves of garlic
1 jalapeno pepper (seeds and all)
juice of 1 lime
1 or 2 tsp. of salt (depends on how much salt you like)
Because there are only two of us, we divided it into four more equal parts and froze it in kits ready to buy new cilantro and heat the meat.
We put the tortillas into pie pans, sprinkled with cheese and baked for about 7 minutes just before serving.
Absolutely fabulous! Thank You!
