Pulled Pork Salad With Tomatillo Ranch Dressing - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 1/2 - 4 lbs pork roast
    2 tablespoons brown sugar
    1 - 1 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    2 teaspoons cumin
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 (8 ounce) can Coke
    1 cup chicken stock
    2 garlic cloves, minced
    1 small onion, chopped
    1 cup brown sugar
    salad dressing
    1 (1/2 ounce) package hidden valley ranch dressing mix
    8 ounces salsa verde
    2 garlic cloves
    3/4 cup mayonnaise
    3/4 cup sour cream
    1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
    1/4 - 1/2 cup fresh cilantro
    fresh lime juice (to taste)
    1 head romaine lettuce
    tortilla chips
    1 (15 ounce) can black beans (if wanted)
Preparation
    The night before: Mix together brown sugar, cayenne pepper, cumin, and salt. Then rub this mixture on roast. Put in crock pot on low. Cook all night. (My crock pot runs HOT, so I only cook mine for four hours instead of 8. But, others that have tried this recipe swear by the overnight rule.).
    The next morning: Add Coke, chicken stock, garlic, onion. Continue cooking on low all day. (Again, I only do this for four more hours. I use a meat thermometers to make sure it's done.).
    An hour before serving: Add the last cup of brown sugar.
    Mix the salad dressing in a blender. Add lime juice to taste. Chill for several hours. If you like your dressing a little thinner, add buttermilk.
    Shred the lettuce, pull the pork and put it on top of the lettuce, add beans, salad dressing, and broken tortilla chips. Enjoy!
