Ingredients
4-5 lbs boneless pork loin roast, rolled and tied (refer to images on bottom of webpage if you need to see how to roll and tie a roast)
1 can / 30 oz refried beans
1 jar / 16 oz thick and chunky salsa, mild or medium (recommended Tostitos Medium Thick N’ Chunky Salsa)
1 can / 28 oz mild green enchilada sauce (recommended La Victoria)
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
Chef Merito Pork Seasoning (or salt and pepper, to taste)

shredded Monterey jack (for serving)
flour and corn tortillas (for serving)

- Spray a large baking pan with non-stick spray.
- In a bowl, stir together the refried beans, salsa, garlic powder, and onion powder.

- Pour 8 oz. of the green enchilada sauce into a small sauce pan, set aside.
- Pour the remaining green enchilada sauce evenly over the pork roast.
- Roast pork in the oven, uncovered, on the center rack for 1-1/2 to 2 hours, until internal temperature reaches 165°f.
- While roast is cooking, stir the beans around the roast a couple of times.
- When roast is done, remove to a serving platter and let rest for at least 10 minutes.
- Scoop the beans into a serving dish with a lid and let the beans rest as well, they will thicken upon standing.

Notes
- For pork burritos: cube leftover roast into chunks, add to crockpot with another 30 oz. can of beans, the leftover beans from the roast, any leftover enchilada sauce, and a 4 oz. can of diced green chilis, you can add in some of the leftover green onions and cilantro as well. Let it cook on low for 3-4 hours, until heated through. Serve as burritos.
