Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

This distinctive recipe calls for pot roast slow-cooked with a surprising mix of cola, ketchup, and onion soup mix. Once the meat is tender, it's shredded and served on warm hamburger buns.

4 1/2 pounds pot roast
1 can (12 ounce size) coca-cola
1 cup ketchup
1 envelope dry French onion soup mix
15 hamburger buns
Place the pot roast in the crock pot. In a small bowl, combine the cola, ketchup, and onion soup mix. Stir gently until smooth.
Pour the cola mixture evenly over the roast. Cover the crock pot and cook on high for 4-5 hours or until the meat is tender and falling apart.
Shred the roast and stir the meat into the sauce and serve on the hamburger buns along with any desired toppings.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
