    Pulled Pork In slow cooker question..

    I heard of a recipe that included root beer to cook a pork shoulder in a slow cooker...Why use root beer?? Sweetness or something? Is there something in the root beer that makes this better without it?

    Root beer has ginger in it. Also the sugar. Soda pop is used in recipes as a tenderizer. Tempera for Japanese cooking uses club soda. It's just a variation of a recipe. Never use it myself.
