    This is fantastic. I first followed the recipe exactly and it was wonderful. Next I made it using my slow cooker with the same ingredients and it worked great. I have shared it with family and friends and everyone asks for the recipe.

    I barbeque pork tenderloins often and have an easier method for this recipe. I buy my pork tenderloins at Costco. They come two in one package and usually weigh about 3/4-1 1/4 lb.EACH,I use just one. Remove the "silver skin" and put a marinade of your choice on the tenderloin in a zip-lock in the refrigerator up to 1 hour or follow Sandra's recipe for seasoning the pork. Heat your gas barbeque on "high" with the lid down 10-15 minutes. Place the cold tenderloin on a greased grill, close the lid and immediately turn the heat to "medium". Cook exactly 15 minutes. Open the lid, turn the pork over, close the lid and cook only 3-5 minutes for the size I mentioned above. The pork is ready when it BEGINS to swell up (150 on Instant Read thermometer. Remove, let set 10 min.

    This was an incredibly yummy dish. And as a mother of three opinionated sons...that's saying something!!! =. The only thing I would have done differently is shredded the meat and added a bit of cheese. But overall all, excellent!

    I doubled the pork portion of this recipe and still had plenty of the coleslaw topping. I seared the pork on the outdoor grill then finished in the oven. It was good with soft flour tortillas too. This is a different,tasty dish and I enjoyed it a great deal. Thank you Sandra.

    Read Sandra Lee's recipe and had to make carnitas for Sunday family day this past week end. Had a 9AM Tee time, looked in the pantry and did not have the taco seasoning so I put New Mexico chili seasoning on pork, used onion powder and garlic powder as well and poured the can red chili sauce in the crock pot and turned it on and left. WOW, what a great Carnitas recipe this was! I have tried several other recipes and this wins by far. Thanks Sandra Lee>

    This is so flavorful! I cut pork chops into pieces & coated them with the taco seasoning and pan seared them. I cannot believe how delicious this is and soooo easy. I'll definitely be using this one again.

    This was so good. For the Chili Lime seasoning- I used a Mrs Dash Fiesta Lime flavor that I found in the spice asile and for the Chipolte sauce, Tabasco makes one that is sold next to the traditional tabasco. WoW! That spicy slaw is awesome. Would be good as a side dish on its own!
