SWEET PORK TACOS WITH APPLE SLAW

SWEET PORK TACOS WITH APPLE SLAW

I have a deep and abiding love for a good slaw. No, not your average summer family picnic coleslaw (no, thank you!). I mean the kind that is tangy, crunchy, and little bit sweet. The kind that elevates anything it’s paired with and comes dangerously close 

COPYCAT CAFE RIO SWEET PORK

COPYCAT CAFE RIO SWEET PORK

It has been over 15 years now since our dad first made Cafe Rio pork for us. Having grown up overseas and outside of Utah, this was a specialty meal in our house. We couldn’t just drive over to the closest Cafe Rio; if we wanted
