Pulled Pork is a classic American dish that has become a staple at backyard barbecues, game day parties, and casual dinners. This recipe takes a unique twist by using root beer to add a sweet and savory flavor to the pork. Slow cooked for several hours, the meat becomes tender and easily falls apart, making it perfect for sandwiches. It is a great option for busy weeknights or casual weekend meals when you want a simple, yet satisfying, meal.

Instructions

1.	Place pork chunks in a slow cooker and pour the root beer over the meat.
2.	Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or until the meat is tender and falls apart easily with a fork.
3.	Drain the liquid from the slow cooker and stir in the barbecue sauce until the meat is evenly coated.
4.	Serve the pulled pork on sandwiches, with toppings like coleslaw, pickles, and cheese, as desired.
