Mexican Pork Loin

Submitted by JillAZ

"From "Pacific Fresh". This is a very good marinade for pork. The recipe calls for grilling, which is delicious. I have also done this in the crock pot and shredded it for tacos. Its delicious that way as well. I just put the pork loin in the crock and poured the marinade ingredients over it instead of marinating ahead of time. Enjoy! Prep time reflects marinating time."
