A couple times a year, I pull out my crock pot and make a big patch of pulled pork. Whenever I bring out my crock pot, I am always dumbfounded why I don’t do this more often. This recipe is crazy simple and the hardest part it just waiting for the meat to cook!

I had adapted this recipe from the Pioneer Woman, but since I had a crock pot instead of a dutch oven, I change up the ingredients. This time I made Dr. Pepper Spicy Pulled Pork with Habanero Salsa.

I was thinking of ways to use the pulled pork, since it definitely makes enough for 4-6 people. Sometimes we like to make pulled pork sandwiches, but this time I decided to put it in a quesadilla. I am never looking back!

Since I had some La Victoria Mango Habanero Salsa on hand, I added it to the quesadilla. It was the perfect blend of sweet and spicy!

La Victoria is one of our favorite brands of salsa and we always keep a jar in the fridge. At least once a week we have a burrito night! La Victoria just came out with three new salsas: Mango Habanero, Pineapple Salsa, and Roasted Pepper Salsa.

During a 4th of July BBQ, we brought chips and the La Victoria Pineapple Salsa. Needless to say, it went fast!

Whether you are using La Victoria Salsa with chips, in a burrito, or as a side to a quesadilla, you can’t go wrong. It’s amazing how something so simple can be so delicious!
