  1. This is a super easy recipe, the pork came out very tender. We used sweet baby rays bbq sauce and it was delicious!
     
  2. Delicious! What's not to love about a recipe with only 3 ingredients that goes together so quickly and easily with minimal preparation? The root beer imparts a slightly sweet flavor to the pork and keeps it moist during cooking. My pork was fork tender after 5 1/2 hours on "low". After draining off the root beer, I stirred in a 19 oz. bottle of "Jack Daniels Honey Smokehouse" barbecue sauce and turned my slow cooker on "warm" until we were ready to eat. I served the pulled pork on whole wheat hamburger buns with a slice of American cheese...yummy! Thank you for sharing this wonderful, quick and easy recipe...it is definitely a keeper!<br/>**Made for 2012 Football Pool**
     
  3. This is the recipe I always use.
     
  4. Made this for Christmas gaming night - yummy! Good on sandwiches, loaded nachos, sliders for the kids and other stuff too!<br/><br/>Easy to make, easy to transport, easy to make in bulk - great for the holidays or any pot-luck!
     
  5. Very easy. I tried it with chicken and it turned out good.
