Ok, I know what you must be thinking. "She puts root beer on her pulled pork? Is this girl nuts?!" This is another big group recipe, so, as with my potato salad recipe, it can be reduced to feed a smaller army. ;) I promise you, this is a simple, easy to make recipe that will impress anyone. The slow cooker and root beer make all the difference.
