• 1 tablespoon cooking oil
• 2 medium onions, cut into thin wedges
• 1 cup root beer*
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 cups root beer (two 12-ounce cans or bottles)*

• Several dashes bottled hot pepper sauce (optional)
• 8 to 10 hamburger buns, split (and toasted, if desired)
• Lettuce leaves (optional)

4. Transfer roast to a cutting board or serving platter. Using a slotted spoon, remove onions from cooking juices and place on serving platter. Discard juices. Using 2 forks, pull meat apart into shreds. To serve, line buns with lettuce leaves and tomato slices, if desired. Add meat and onions; spoon on sauce. Makes 8 to 10 servings.
