Dr. Pepper’s unique blend of 23 flavors, including cherry, licorice, and citrus, adds a surprising depth to the pulled pork. It creates a subtle sweetness that caramelizes beautifully, a hint of smokiness that complements the BBQ flavors, and a touch of tang that cuts through the richness of the pork.
