Slow Cooker Pork Tacos

My main goal for this here blog is to document things I've tried.  Despite the fact that I'm writing two posts today, posting is likely to be intermittent.  But, there's something new in the crock pot, so I thought I'd write about it.  

The Recipe:  Slow Cooker Pork Tacos 
Initial thoughts after getting it all prepped and in the slow cooker:  My understanding of the recipe is that it called for fresh chils.  I went with dried.  I don't have a good reason, just thought it seemed the right way for me to go.  I used three anchos and three mulato chili pods.  
The mulato chile:


The ancho chile:


Yes, they look strikingly similar to me too.  Anyhoo... I reconstituted (essentially simmered them in hot water) the chiles and made the chile sauce last night.  This morning I did the rest of what needed to be done and threw the whole shootin' match into the crock pot.  
In an effort to keep things a little more on the healthy side, I went with a sirloin roast instead of the pork shoulder.  I have no authority to declare the sirloin roast to be better for you, but it just looked a lot less fatty as I stood in the meat section of the local grocery store.  
I also prepped and cooked some refried beans without the refry .  They cooked overnight and are ready to be reheated when dinn dinn is ready.  It made a whole lotta beans, so I froze some.  Side dishes are a constant shortcoming of mine, so hopefully they'll taste good coming out of the freezer.  I'll let ya know.
