In reply to Niel. It might work? I've never tried it before! I bet it would work though. Let me know if you do and how it turns out.

In reply to Lisa Crosby Keime. It should be just fine that you added all of the ingredients! I hope you like it!!

I accidentally added all the ingredients in at the beginning!! I’m hoping it will sill turn out the same… whoops! Any advice on how I could fix it?

Outstanding recipe! We have made this SO many times! I did a couple things different. First of all, from the beginning, we cut our pork into 4 pieces. I figure, the more meat that can touch the sauce the better. After the 6 hours, we drain 1/2 of it off before adding other ingredients, and also shred it at this point…once again, the more sauce that touches the meat the more flavor there is. So yummy good, I’m so happy to have found this!

In reply to Lex. Uncarbonated?! Wow! That's good to know! And I'm glad the regular Dr. Pepper worked! Thanks for your comment!

I wanted to comment, I worked at the one in AZ for 3 years, they actually use uncarbonated Coke 😉 . I only had Dr.pepper at home and saw this to see if I could get away with a different soda and I did 🙂 Thank you!!

In reply to Caroline. I actually have never tried doubling this before but it should work out just fine! Just check it often near the end of cooking time because it might take a little longer to cook with more pork. I hope you like it!

Can you double the recipe and have it turn out?

In reply to Stephanie. I have a friend who makes it using Coke Zero instead of Dr.Pepper and it is delicious.

Hi! Do you think I could use Diet Dr. Pepper? I have beef on hand right now, how do you think the recipe would turn out with shredded beef?

Yum! I made this in my Instant Pot tonight (with a few adjustments for using the IP) and the recipe is a keeper!!
