2 pound pork roast (you can use shoulder, butt, or loin)
8 ounces chunky salsa
1 (12 ounce) can Dr. Pepper soda
1 cup brown sugar
10 Flour tortillas
3 cups shredded Colby Jack Cheese (divided)
1/2 cup sour cream - optional topping
1/2 cup guacamole - optional topping
1/2 cup Pico De Gallo - optional topping
1 cup shredded lettuce - optional topping
1/2 cup salsa - optional topping

Steps:

Put the pork in the slow cooker, and fill with water until it reaches halfway up the roast.
Cook on high for 3 hours.
Drain the water and cut the pork in thirds.
Mix together salsa, Dr. Pepper, and brown sugar and pour over the pork.
Cook on low for 3 more hours.
Drain the liquid (reserving just a little bit to mix with the pork) and shred the pork. Mix the shredded pork with the reserved liquid.
Heat a nonstick griddle or pan to medium heat, place a tortilla on the heated griddle.
Sprinkle on about 1/2 cup cheese and a 1/2 cup pork and place a second tortilla on top.
Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until tortilla is golden brown, turning over halfway through.
Serve with optional toppings.
