Tahoe dining: Pop Pulled Pork for Presidents' Day

TAHOE/TRUCKEE and#8212; Wow. Try saying that fast three times. Maybe, because it is for Presidents' Day, it should be a recipe for pulled leg, i.e. and#8220;We're going after weapons of mass destruction,and#8221; and#8220;I did not have sexual relations with that woman,and#8221; and#8220;There will be no mandated health care,and#8221; etc.

Plus pulled pork doesn't sound appetizing, or even hygienic. I mean, I understand pulled taffy and#8212; that's part of the process. I've seen the machines at county fairs. But never has a vendor approached me at a carnival and said and#8220;Hey little lady. Wanna' try your hand at pulling pork?and#8221; At least not without getting arrested. Really , there is no tugging involved in this pulled pork recipe, so go figure. I can, however, explain the and#8220;Pop.and#8221;

That would be root beer, plain and simple. The following is a beautifully easy recipe for this holiday weekend. The fact you just throw it all in a crock pot means you will have ample time for the slopes.
