Slow-Cooker Coca-Cola Pulled Pork Sandwich

There are basically two types of soda drinkers in this world.  One being Coke drinkers and the other being Pepsi drinkers.  Myself, I am a Coke drinker.  I absolutely love it.  I love the clean crisp flavor and the way it sparkles all the way down.  And I am pretty much certain that Pepsi could very well be subbed in for the Coke here, but I cannot say for sure.  Because I refuse to buy it, drink it or even cook with it.  Literally, I would take water over Pepsi any day of the week.  Sorry Dad (he's a Pepsi fan).  And to top off my already fueled love affair with this soda, I came across a Coca-Cola cook book one day at my Mom's house when I was younger.  I used to love to look and flip through them as I would eat my bowl of cereal or my Mom's honey pancakes in the mornings.  Some kids looked at toy magazines or teen magazines as they got older, me, I gazed at recipes.  Fitting I guess.  Well, anyways, I was awestruck by the idea that one could make anything from cake to meatloaf with a can of soda.  And that has always played around in the back of my mind as the years went by.  Then a few weeks ago it hit me.  Why not make a pulled pork, which I love and make all the time, with a can of Coke?  So I did.  And it was just as delicious as I was sure it would be.

3 lb. pork picnic roast (only because that's what I had in my deep freezer-you could use any pork roast)
sea salt and fresh cracked pepper
1 T. of bacon grease (I save my bacon drippings in an old pickle jar for cooking with)
1 Lg. vidalia sweet onion (chopped)
2 cloves of garlic (minced)
1 can of Coca-Cola
1 jar of chili sauce
2 T. of light brown sugar (packed)
rolls
sliced Jalapeno Dill Pickles (see my recipe)

-In a large stockpot over high heat, brown your salt and peppered pork roast in the bacon grease for 3-5 minutes on each side or until you start to develop a nice dark brown (not burnt) crusting.  Once it is fully browned on all sides, remove from your pan and place in your slow-cooker.  Return to your pan and reduce the heat to medium-high.  Toss in your onions, garlic and a little bit more salt and pepper (to sweat them).  Saute' for a few minutes until the onions are softened.  Pour in the soda, chili sauce and the brown sugar.  Stir well while bringing it to a boil.  Then just pour over your roast that's in the slow-cooker and set it to go Slow and Low for 8-10 hours (as always in crockery cooking, the longer the better).  Once it is done, using 2 forks, shred and place on a bun with a pickle.  Serves 8-10.  Enjoy!

  26. The proper adult acne home treatment is to use effective products that are
    regularly applied during facial washing. Obese people have increased insulin activity if they are eating sugar containing foods and this
    promotes the development of acne. Low temperature will cause the blood
    vessels to constrict and prevent further redness of the acne infected area.
