If you like pork, you must try this recipe! It's super tasty, it's got a sweet chilli flavour. Perfect for summer BBQs! I prepared this dish with root beer, which makes the pork extra tender. Surprisingly, the root beer doesn't make it too sweet, I actuaylly added extra honey in the end.

This recipe, again, is very easy. It does, however, takes a long time to cook.
I didn't use a slow cooker, if you have one at home, it is even easier. Just put the ingredients in and let it cook by itself for around 6 hours. I cooked mine around 4 with a stove.
You can eat this with burger buns, sandwich bread, or even on rice!

Steps:
1) Mix caynne pepper, garlic powder, paprika together, cover the mixture on the pork
2) Brown the onion a little bit
3) Put in the pork, cover it with a can of root beer, just let it cook
4) It should be ready when the liquid evaporates, if not, add a little bit more root beer
5) When the pork is tender and soft enought to be teared apart by a fork, it is ready! Remember to scoop out all the fat/ oil before seasoning.
6) Add in honey, ketchup, vinegar, worcestershre sauce and salt& pepper to taste. ( if you don't have these ingredients, you can try your BBQ sauce at home.)
