Tex-Mex Pulled Pork

Sauce
1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
1/4 cup chili powder (no, that's not a typo)
1 cup bottled barbecue sauce
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
2 (4.5 oz) cans diced green chilies
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

2 1/2 pound well-trimmed boneless pork loin roast
1/2 cup chopped cilantro

Mix sauce ingredients in a 3-quart or larger slow cooker.  Add pork and then spoon sauce over pork.  Cover cooker and cook on high for 3 1/2 hours or low 8-10 hours until pork is fork-tender.  Remove pork to a cutting board, and using two forks, pull the meat to shreds.

Pour sauce into serving bowl; stir in cilantro and shredded pork.  Serve on flour tortillas or burger buns, with shredded lettuce, diced onion, and sour cream as toppings.
