Ingredients
2lbs pork tenderloin8oz root beer16 tablespoons Sweet Baby Ray's Honey BBQ sauce
place pork in slow cooker and pour root beer over top.
cook for 6-8 hours ideally.
pour out root beer and pork juice.
shred pork with forks and mix in BBQ sauce.
continue to cook for a few minutes to warm pulled pork mixture to the temperature of your liking.
to adjust recipe. add 2 tablesspoons sauce for every 4oz of uncooked pork. in the calorie count listed I used two tenderloins for a combined weight of 34 oz, so a little more than 2lbs. i added an extra tablespoon of sauce to account for the extra 2oz, for a total 17 tablespoons. I did not adjust the root beer amount because it was just a small amount. this yielded 8.5 servings. a 2lbs loin would produce 8 servings, 1 serving per 4 oz of meat.
this recipe does not include the calorie count for your choice of bun.my husband prefers whole wheat hamburger buns, I prefer orowheat sandwich thins for a lower calorie alternative.
happy eating.
