Cafe Rio Pork Salad

Ingredients:
pork tenderloin, 1-2 lbs. (I bought mine at walmart)
1 c. brown sugar
2 c. fresh salsa

1 pkg. Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing (dry mix)
1 c. buttermilk
1/3-1/2 bunch of cilantro, chopped
1/2-1 small jalapeno (remove seed) or equivalent of jarred jalapenos
1 c. mayo (I only had 1/2 c. and it worked out fine)
1 t. lime juice
1-2 tomatillos (remove outer papery skin)
1 garlic clove

Directions: Mix sugar and salsa, pour over pork. Cook in crock pot for 8 hrs. on low. When done shred with two forks and return to juice in crock pot and allow liquid to absorb. Add water as needed and if needed to keep it juicy. For the dressing, put all ingredients in blender. Serve pork on a bed of romaine lettuce and add dressing.
