Wow! This is just delicious. I made it exactly as written. I will add a little more adobo next time - I like a lot of spice. Much more sophisticated in flavor than most crockpot recipes. Thanks for posting!

Yummy!!! This was such a great supper! I might have added just a little more adobo sauce than the recipe called for but otherwise made as directed. It was spicy without being out of control. The sauce part was very tasty. Thanks for posting this great crock pot recipe! made for Newest Zaar Tag.
