Root Beer Pulled Pork Sliders are only 4 ingredients and cook in the crock-pot 8 hours for an easy, affordable family friendly dinner or game day snack. Make sure to get a quality pork and look for pork shoulder or pork butt because that is what will shred the best for these little sliders. Pick your favorite root beer brand and BBQ sauce brand and any type of slider buns. Typically, when making a pulled pork I would recommend a lot of great seasoning for the meat as it cooks but for these I let the root beer do the work and buy a great tasting BBQ sauce to top it off.

How much root beer? I have it cooking now. I used 20 Oz. Covers half of the roast. Is that enough?
Yeah, just a bottle. you don’t have to have the root beer cover it all. If you are home to flip it half way through cooking also. Let me know how it turns out!
Whew. Thanks. It’s been cooking 5 hrs already. I also seasoned roast with a little Adobo and pepper. 3 hrs left. Fingers crossed.
I love pulled pork! I normally try it with Dr. Pepper, but I bet this way is even better! Thank you for sharing!
Dr Pepper is a great idea too!
Adding root beer helps break down the meat and makes it taste so wonderful. Keeping this one.
Going to try this recipe very soon. It looks so good 🙂
YUM! I love pork sliders but have never tried to make them myself. I may have to try this recipe for myself!
You should! It is so easy!
