Instructions

  • Remove roast from slow cooker and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Store: Cool Dr. Pepper Pot Roast and transfer to an airtight container. It can be refrigerated for up to 3 days. Dr. Pepper Pot Roast is great for meal prepping and leftovers. You can portion it with brown or cauliflower rice for healthy lunch bowls. For a summertime lunch, use leftovers to make shredded BBQ beef sandwiches.
  • Freeze: Cool completely and place in a freezer safe container, and freeze for up to 3 months. Defrost overnight in the refrigerator before reheating. Reheat in a pre-heated 350°F oven for 10 to 15 minutes.
Recipe Variations:
    • Meat: Pork butt, pork roast or pork shoulder is a delicious alternative in this recipe.
    • Seasonings: This recipe calls for store-bought Dry Onion seasoning becasue it's easy, but you could also use homemade.
    • Add mild heat: A variation of this recipe you can find online is to add 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce and 3/4 cup marachino cherries to the crockpot. By adding these two ingredients, it becomes a savory, sweet, and spicy pot roast. This variation definitely adds some kick, so give it a try if you like a spicky kick.
