So, for any of you out there that LOVE Cafe Rio but have no access to it's deliciousness, boy do I have a recipe for you. Yes, you can make Cafe Rio at home. Check it out. Many of our friends out here have introduced us to this and it's the next best thang, I tell ya! I made a 6 lb roast for it and we had dinner for a week. I don't usually like leftovers, but I ate it all up. I'm totally addicted. BTW, it freezes well, too.Cafe Rio Pork

Hi Kim! I am definitely going to try this. I can't wait, it smelled so good when i was at your house...I feel like a pregnant woman with a craving...I HAVE to go to the store right now to buy the ingredients... :o)
OMG! I can't say enough of how absolutely scrumptious this dish was...everyone in the family agreed! After skimming the directions and reading them WRONG, everything turned out splendid! My palate won't ever be the same! Thanks so much for the joy in eating it allowed for myself and my family!!
