Austin Rich:

↳ HyperDose @7:32
I use a dose of Dr. Pepper when I put a pork shoulder in the crockpot. Some other seasoning, maybe some onion. I'd have to look at my recipe card for the spice combo, but it makes a good pulled pork for tacos.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:33pm
Pauly from Clifton:

↳ HyperDose @7:32
I think I saw a recipe in the Times for something called a "Mississippi Roast" that used Dr Pepper as a braising liquid.

When I worked at Baked, we had a chocolate cake called the "Coca Cola Bundt". It was really good - and it did include Coca Cola in the recipe!

Soda is really acidic, so it makes sense that it could work as a tenderizer.

7-Up and ginger ale were used that way.

Austin, the recipe I recall had similar ingredients to your pork shoulder. Need to investigate!

And the high sugar content is great for caramelizing and reducing
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:38pm
Austin Rich:

↳ Pauly from Clifton @7:36
Here's one version, that suggests that all you need to do is add BBQ sauce after the pork is "pulled." But there are better things to add. The basic idea is the same as the way I do it:

I wish it was easy to keep emergency tacos around. Feels like there are too many circumstances where, if you could just break out a few tacos for everyone, it was solve a LOT of problems.

I keep emergency burritos in my freezer! It's close.

I meal prep veggie and cheese burritos. Always have a few freezer bags full. Great in a pinch

I highly recommend it. When I go to the grocery store, I buy a ton of ingredients - make enough for dinner, and then put the rest in the freezer...for emergencies!

I am so bad about meal prep. But I am very fond of tacos and taco-adjacent food concepts. I might have to make an exception.
