Slow Cooked Pulled Pork

When the price is right, you need to strike! The local grocery store had a sale on Pork Butt, Tenderloin and the works, hence the reason I am focusing on pork so much this week, the sales were awesome! Tonight I'm making a family favorite, pulled pork sandwiches. This recipe is so simple and the secret ingredient? ROOT BEER! I like A & W , but whatever root beer you want works the same. Also, there is alot of play room with this recipe. I add a half a chopped onion, and two minced garlic cloves and about a teaspoon of liquid smoke for that yummy smokey flavor without dealing with the grill. This is ideal for busy work days, when you want a good hot meal with minimal efforts. I've crocked alot this last two weeks because my schedule has been so crazy, and tonight.... it's BBQ Baby! Enjoy! - Miss Rachel
