Time 16h15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 pounds boneless pork shoulder, cut into 2- to 3-inch cubes
3 tablespoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons freshly cracked black pepper
1/4 cup canola oil
8 cups root beer

Steps:

  • Day 1: Put the pork cubes in a casserole dish or baking sheet and rub them evenly with the salt and pepper. Cover in plastic and refrigerate for at least 12 hours.
  • Day 2: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Sear the pork until golden brown on all sides; transfer to a good-quality, high-walled braising pan and pour in the root beer. Cover the braising pan with parchment paper and then aluminum foil.
  • Place the pan in the oven and set a timer for 1 hour. When the timer goes off, lower the heat to 275 degrees F. Cook for another 2 hours. When the timer goes off again, check the pork to make sure it pulls apart easily. Stick a fork in it and twist--if it pulls apart easily, you're good to go!
  • Let rest for about 30 minutes. Once cooled, take the pork out of the braising liquid and pull it for sandwiches.

This was the worst pulled pork I have ever had. I would not recommend this recipe.

The sauce was too thick. I had to add some water to thin it out.

I would recommend using a different type of root beer. The one I used was too sweet.

This was my first time making pulled pork, and I was really happy with the results. The root beer gave the pork a really nice flavor, and the meat was fall-apart tender. I will definitely be making this again.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it always turns out perfectly. The pork is always moist and juicy, and the sauce is thick and flavorful. I love serving this with coleslaw and mashed potatoes.

This root beer pulled pork was a huge hit at my last party! It was so tender and flavorful, and the root beer glaze gave it a unique and delicious taste. I will definitely be making this again.
