My friend Nikky shared this dish with me and I loved it! The flavors all go so well together, and what could be easier than cooking in a crockpot? Thanks Nikky!

YUMMM!
made this today and was very good. i used a pork tenderloin and put the meat and all the spices/chilies in the crockpot with a can of chicken broth. i cooked on low for 7 hours, (it was done after 5 though)shredded the meat and then add a can of rinsed pinto beans. heated for about an hour more. i would drain some of the juice off before serving.
